Initial document to build and run RDK starboard. It contains:

  • What is the RDK reference device and where to get one
  • Build starboard using Cobalt mechanism
  • Run and check the log

Bug: b/442480997

One concern: the image, updating tools and instructions to use the AH212 devices are located in developers.google.com and the users needs to be a cobalt developer to access it.


3. Update images and getting logs

Does this mean all instructions are on the external website ?

So the word document you had is no longer needed ?

The gDoc contains more information regarding how to use the reference device. Ex: how to run cobalt as an executable, check key provision status, pairing RCU via commands etc. They will not included in the external documents. We can add more instructions here if something is mandatory and important. Otherwise, I will keep this document to focus on running the cobalt only.

I remove the document about download/update images as I have issue to provide the image to public. Let's point the partner to access the developer portal instead.
