 +<WRAP round important> It's strongly recommended to use **git** for downloading both the Yocto Project / Poky Release as well as meta-tq-powerarch (instead of downloading archives and extracting them).</WRAP>
 +
 +<WRAP round info>
 +The goal of these wiki pages is to get you started using meta-tq-powerach with the STKT104x, so instead of reinventing the wheel we will adhere to the very compact [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html|Yocto Project Quick Start]] and supply details specific to the STKT104x where necessary.
 +
 +For further details regarding Yocto Project 2.0.1 - Jethro please refer to its [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/archived-documents/|official documentation]].
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +===== Prerequisites  =====
 +
 +//Yocto Project / Poky// requires a Linux build host, so first of all you need a development workstation (or a virtual machine((for testing purposes //Yocto Project// provides a ready to use virtual machine called [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/tools-resources/projects/build-appliance|Build Appliance]]))) with a (preferably) recent Linux distribution installed.
 +
 +Please refer to section [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html#the-linux-distro|The Linux Distribution]] of the //Yocto Project Quick Start// for supported linux distributions and section [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html#packages|The Build Host Packages]] for required build host packages for those distributions.
 +
 +Although not required by //Yocto Project / Poky//, we also recommend to configure and run a [[en:tftp|tftp server]] (for image download / update) and an [[en:nfs|nfs server]] (for network mounted root filesystem) on your development host.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +===== Yocto Project / Poky set-up =====
 +
 +The [[https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html|Yocto Project Quick Start]] document explains how to set up //Yocto Project / Poky// and how to build images using the //meta-intel// layer.
 +Using this as a guideline, the following describes how to use the //meta-tq-powerach// layer for the STK104x.
 +
 +
 +=== Install the repo tool on development host ===
 +
 +  * Download the repo tool: <code>curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > repo</code>
 +  * Make it executable: <code>chmod +x repo</code>
 +  * Move it to your system path: <code>sudo mv repo /usr/local/bin</code>
 +  * Verify installation: <code>repo --help</code>
 +
 +
 +=== Initialize the repository ===
 +
 +  * Create an empty directory: <code>mkdir yocto && cd yocto</code>
 +  * Initialize the repository: <code>repo init -u ssh://git@github.com/tq-systems/yocto-manifest.git -b jethro-tqmtxxxx</code>  
 +  * Fetch all the source codes: <code>repo sync</code>
 +
 +=== Setup the Yocto project build environment ===
 +
 +==1. Create an environment file in your build directory: ==
 +
 +<code>
 +cat > environment << EOF
 +export LOADENV_USER=tq
 +export TEMPLATECONF=meta-tq-powerarch/conf
 +source poky/oe-init-build-env
 +export BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE="$BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE FSL_RCW"
 +EOF
 +</code>
 +
 +==2. Initialize Build environment== 
 +
 +Before image generation can be started the build environment has to be initialized by the following command:  
 +
 +<code> source environment </code>
 +
 +This copies default configuration information into the build/conf directory. Additionally some environment variables will be set up for the build system. This configuration directory is not under revision control; you may wish to edit these configuration files for your specific setup.
 +
 +
 +=== Building an Image  ===
 +
 +Now building an image can be started by running the command:
 +
 +<code> bitbake core-image-minimal </code>
