Get Started with the Intel® Edison Development Board on Linux*
This step-by-step guide will help you:
- Assemble and connect cables to your Intel® Edison board in Step 1.
- Run the setup tool to flash your Intel® Edison board's firmware in Step 2.
- Connect to your Intel® Edison board over UART (serial) in Step 3.
- Set a device password and connect your development board to Wi-Fi* in Step 4.
Host Operating System Requirements
This guide is for all host systems running a Linux* distribution.
Do you have a different OS?
See the getting started guides for Windows* 64-bit, or Windows* 32-bit, or Mac OS X*.
Physical Material Requirements
The Intel® Edison compute module is meant to be used with a breakout board and is typically bought together with a kit containing the compute module and a breakout board.
Supported kits are listed below, along with required materials, and a link to get started for your specific breakout board.
