For Edge - 2.0 English

Use the following steps to set up the host for Edge:

1. Install the cross-compilation system environment.

   cd Vitis-AI/setup/mpsoc/VART
   ./host_cross_compiler_setup.sh

   Note: The ~/petalinux_sdk_2021.2 path is recommended for the installation. Regardless of the path you choose for the installation, make sure the path has read-write permissions. In this section, it is installed in ~/petalinux_sdk_2021.2
2. When the installation is complete, follow the prompts and enter the following command.

   source ~/petalinux_sdk_2021.2/environment-setup-cortexa72-cortexa53-xilinx-linux

   Note: If you close the current terminal, you need to re-execute the above instructions in the new terminal to set up the environment.
3. Cross compile the sample taking resnet50 as an example.

   cd Vitis-AI/demo/VART/resnet50
   bash –x build.sh

   If the compilation process does not report any error and the executable file resnet50 is generated, then the host environment is installed correctly.
