This document describes how to build and install the i.MX Linux OS BSP, where BSP stands for Board Support Package, on the i.MX platform. It also covers special i.MX features and how to use them.

The document also provides the steps to run the i.MX platform, including board DIP switch settings, and instructions on configuring and using the U-Boot bootloader.

The later chapters describe how to use some i.MX special features when running the Linux OS kernel.

Features covered in this guide may be specific to particular boards or SoCs. For the capabilities of a particular board or SoC, see the i.MX Linux Release Notes (RN00210).
