Torizoncore 6.5 on Easy install

We just got one of these for evaluation:
Verdin iMX8M Plus 4GB WB IT V1.1A

I cannot this version of TorizonCore for Easy Install (they only show 5.7)

It was available on my board, but I’ve been reimaging due to numerous wrong decisions.
thanks

Hello,

It seems you’re having difficulty locating TorizonCore version 6.5 for your Verdin iMX8M Plus module using the Toradex Easy Installer, as only version 5.7 is visible. This might occur if the image list in the Easy Installer is outdated or if the specific version isn’t currently available online.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve this:

  1. Refresh the Image List: Ensure your board is connected to the internet and refresh the list of available images in the Toradex Easy Installer. This might update the list to show the latest versions.

  2. Update the Installer: Make sure the Toradex Easy Installer is up-to-date, as an outdated version might not display the latest images.

  3. Manual Installation: If TorizonCore 6.5 isn’t available through the Easy Installer, you can manually download the image. Here’s how:

    • Download the TorizonCore 6.5 image from the Toradex website.
    • Transfer the image to a USB drive or SD card.
    • Connect the USB drive or SD card to your module.
    • Use the Toradex Easy Installer to select and install the image from the external storage.
  4. Check Network Settings: Ensure your network settings allow the board to access Toradex’s online servers, as network restrictions might prevent the Easy Installer from retrieving the latest images.

By following these steps, you should be able to access and install the desired version of TorizonCore on your module.

Greetings @geeday,

On Easy Installer we only show the latest released versions for each major version by default. For the 6.X series this would be 6.8.0 at the time of writing. If you want the older released versions like 6.5.0, you need to download them from here: Download Links | Toradex Developer Center

Then you can follow the instructions to put the older version on a USB stick and use Easy Installer to install this.

Is there a specific reason you want to flash the old 6.5.0 release?

thanks for the reply.
I was looking for 6.x with evaluation containers. After i reflashed the board with Easy installer, this wasn;t an option.
it turns out, i didn’t actually need it and the base TorizonCore was what i needed so i could develop with VS Code and containers.
Thanks again, more questions coming I’m sure…

Yes any default TorizonCore/Torizon OS image will have support for containers.

Thanks again, more questions coming I’m sure…
