Ubuntu Core image for IoT2020

  • 772

I want to install ubuntu core on a IoT2020 device (by Siemens) [1].

I couldn't find any Ubuntu Core images or Gadget Snaps for this device, but after a quick web search it seems I can create my own image using ubuntu-device-flash.

I'm not sure what options I should be choosing for the IoT2020 device though. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction?

Related: Is there a place I can request or recommend adding this device to their list of pre-built images?

EDIT: If a existing Ubuntu Core image and gadget snap will work with this device, that would be even better. I just don't know which.

EDIT: I've now also posted a question on Siemens support forums regarding this [2], as well as a github issue on their meta-iot2000 repo [3]

  1. That looks like an X86 device, so you might find the Intel NUC images might work there.
