# Compile and flash image

|-------|-------------|
| **tastitalia-base-image** | Weston minimal environment with Chromium |
| **tastitalia-demo-image** | Tastitalia-base-image with the addition of QT, machine learning libraries and NXP graphical demo examples |
| **tastitalia-lvgl-image** | Minimal image with LVGL libraries and without any Desktop Environment |
Once the image is compiled it will be possible to find in the build directory a deploy folder with the image files. The relative path to this folder from the yocto directory will be `tmp/deploy/images/<MACHINE>`
Example:
```bash
$: cd tmp/deploy/images/tasd8mm-2g-10
$: cd tmp/deploy/images/tasv8mp
$: ls *wic.zst
```
### Compile tastitalia-lvgl-image
To build Yocto using tastitalia-lvgl-image, you need also to change DISTRO variable, assigning **tast-imx-lvgl** name during the environment setup.
Example:
```bash
$: DISTRO=tast-imx-lvgl MACHINE=tasv8mp source imx-setup-release.sh -b build
$: bitbake tastitalia-lvgl-image
```
### Flash image on uSD card
Here an example to flash an image to your uSD card from a Linux distribution:
```bash
$: cd tmp/deploy/images/tasd8mp-2g-10/
$: unzstd tastitalia-demo-image-tasd8mp-2g-10-20230713143133.rootfs.wic.zst

$: sudo dd if=tastitalia-demo-image-tasv8mp-20230713143133.rootfs.wic of=/dev/sdb bs=1M conv=fsync status=progress
#### Change /dev/sdb with your current uSD device

We follow a specific naming convention for our board names. The board names are in the format **tasXYYY_Zg_W**, where:
- "**X**" indicates the format of the System-on-Module (SOM):
- "d" represents SODIMM format
- "c" represents SMARC format.
- "d" represents SODIMM Engicam format
- "c" represents SMARC Engicam format.
- "d" represents SODIMM Variscite format
- "**YYY**" indicates the processor type, such as "8mp" for NXP i.MX8M Plus processor
- "**Z**" indicates the amount of DDR RAM in GB.
- "**W**" indicates the display size in inches.
For example, a board name **tasd8mm_2g_10** would represent a board with a SODIMM format, an i.MX8M Mini processor, 2GB of DDR RAM, and a 10-inch display (Dev Kit).
