The ARM Embedded Toolchain
First download the latest Zephyr SDK installer:
cd ~
wget https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/sdk-ng/releases/download/v0.11.4/zephyr-sdk-0.11.4-se
tup.run
Then run it:
chmod +x zephyr-sdk-0.11.4-setup.run
./zephyr-sdk-0.11.4-setup.run -- -d ~/zephyr-sdk-0.11.4
Finally install the udev rules which allows you to flash boards using a programmer.
sudo cp ~/zephyr-sdk-0.11.4/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/share/openocd/contrib/60-openocd.r
ules /etc/udev/rules.d
sudo udevadm control --reload
Installing newtmgr
For loading code to your nRF9160 Thing Plus, you'll need to download and copy a custom version of newtmgr to a
folder in your PATH.
