install source ISO

[jsanchor]

Hi, I installed QorIQ-SDK-V2.0-20160527-yocto on my Linux machine. /run/media/jsanchor/yocto/install. After Installation completion, I get the message: "Next step, please install source ISO to /home/jsanchor". I want to build the SDK for P5020DS, that is a e500mc core.

How do I do this? Thank you in advance.

Windows software titles are often distributed in ISO format. There are a couple of ways to use this file type depending on the version of Windows you are using.

An ISO image file is a single file that is a representation of the contents of a CD or DVD.

To install your software from the ISO image, choose from the following, depending on the version of Windows you are using.

Windows 8, 8.1 10 or 11
Right-click on the ISO image file and choose mount from the menu. This will open the file much like a DVD. You will see it listed among your drive letters in Windows explorer. Browse to the location of the setup file and double-click it to start your installation.

Windows 7
For this version of Windows, you will need to extract the files from the ISO image. This is similar to unzipping a .zip file.
You can extract the files to a folder on your hard drive using a program such as WinZip or 7zip. If using WinZip, right-click on the ISO image file and choose one of the extract options. Then browse to the location of the setup file and double-click it to start your installation.

The steps to start your software installation are very basic, please consult your WebStore order history and your software order for links to installation instructions for your specific software.

You may also want to burn the ISO image file to a DVD as a backup copy of your software. You can do this in Windows 7 and newer by right-clicking the ISO image file and choosing Burn Disk Image.

This may help you,

Installing QoRIQ SDK on Linux (Centos7)

0. make sure yocto support packages are installed on host
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/brief-yoctoprojectqs/brief-yoctoprojectqs.html

1. download ISO from Freescale/NXP website, you do have to register for access
- they have all kinds of ISOs, i downloaded one for PPCE5500
https://www.nxp.com/design/software/embedded-software/linux-software-and-development-tools/linux-sdk...

Download: QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 SOURCE.iso
Download: QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPCE5500 Yocto Cache.iso

2. Mount ISO
2a. double-click on ISO in explorer window to perform mount
for me it mounted at: /run/media/jsanchor/yocto<X>
- try "sudo mount -l", to see something like this:
/home/jsanchor/Downloads/QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPCE500MC IMAGE.iso on /run/media/jsanchor/yocto type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,dmode=0500,mode=0400,uhelper=udisks2) [yocto]
- this example tells me, ISO is mounted at "on /run/media/jsanchor/yocto"

2b. or command-line:
1a. rename ISO if it contains spaces or periods
sudo mkdir /mnt/cdrom --> this is where i wanted to mount it
cd /home/jsanchor/Downloads --> this is where my ISO was downloaded
sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 QorIQ_Linux_SDK_v20_PPCE500MC_Yocto_Cache.is

3. install source ISO
/run/media/jsanchor/yocto/install

4. extract/install cache ISO ->
/run/media/jsanchor/yoctoX/install or /mnt/cdrom/install
pick folder for install, /home/jsanchor/QorIQ-SDK-V2.0-20160527-yocto
