How to Install

Guides for getting a Pantavisor image onto a device, from SD card flashing to board-specific install methods.

Topics​

  1. SD Card — write a .wic image to an SD card using pvflasher or dd; the generic method for most boards
  2. Docker / Local Target — run Pantavisor locally with Docker for development and testing without hardware
  3. Toradex — flash Toradex Colibri and Verdin modules with UUU and the self-contained pv-flash-bundle
  4. UUU — flash NXP i.MX targets (Variscite DART-MX8M-Mini, VAR-SOM-MX8M-Nano, NXP i.MX8QXP MEK) using the Universal Update Utility and the self-contained pv-flash-bundle
  5. Board Guides — board-specific wiring, boot-mode selection, and install notes
