ModuCop Yocto BSP Manual
This manual describes how to use the standard Yocto Linux images from Ci4Rail for the ModuCop Edge Computer MEC01/02.
The manual does not describe how to build the images, instead it describes how to use the pre-built images and how to adapt them to your needs. In case you want to build your own image, you can use our yocto-images repo on github
This documentation is valid for the Image versions 2.x and higher, which are based on Yocto 5.x (Scarthgap) and Linux kernel 6.6.54. Scarthgap is the latest LTS version of Yocto, which is supported until 2028.
