 +First we create the file system image on a micro SD card.
 +<code>
 +dd if=sdcard.img of=/dev/sdc bs=4M
 +</code>
 +
 +Next, Hold the PROG button and toggle RESET on the SDXL board to enter the boot laoder. We will use [[:tools:pic32prog|PIC32Prog]] to install the kernel.

 +A virtual com port should have been detected after installation.

 +The kernel will log something similar to the following.

 +Connecting with a terminal emulator to the virtual com port and pressing enter will boot the system.
