  • Article

In this step, you use the New Platform Wizard to create a custom platform. With the platform that you create, you are able to build an operating system (OS) image that runs on a CEPC.

To create a custom OS image for a CEPC

  1. On the development workstation, start the Platform Builder application.
  2. From the File menu, choose New Platform, and when the New Platform Wizard appears, choose Next.
  3. From the list of available board support packages (BSPs), select CEPC: X86, and then choose Next.
  4. From the list of available platform configurations, select EnterpriseWeb Pad.
  5. In the Platform Name box, type MyCEPCPlatform as the name for your platform, and then choose Next.
  6. To accept the default selections for Application & Media, choose Next.
  7. To accept the default selections for Networking & Communications, choose Next.
  8. To acknowledge the Special Feature notifications, select the Notification Acknowledged check box for each notification, and then choose Next.
  9. To close the New Platform Wizard, choose Finish.

Platform Builder generates the initial platform files for both a debug configuration and a release configuration. When these files are created, control returns to the IDE, and you are ready to build the OS image.
