VOXL 1 (APQ8096) System Image
Overview
This page describes the Yocto System Image that runs on VOXL. In the VOXL Quickstarts, you can find details on how to flash the VOXL system image.
Yocto Jethro Linux kernel 3.18 Source, Build Instructions
Yocto Jethro Linux Userspace: Source to add new userspace packages.
Many new packages can be added using bitbake. We have a bitbake project that enables building new IPK packages for install on target here: Source
Do I need to install it?
If you have a VOXL 2, it comes pre-installed so there’s nothing to do unless you are looking to install a newer version.
If you are having problems with your system, please ask questions on the forum before reflashing the system image.
Download Location
You can download the system image from our protected downloads page. Although this is usually not necessary since the system image is bundled in our Platform Releases.
