To start with, I would create a blinky-frdm-k64f target:
newt target copy my_blinky_sim blinky-frdm-k64f
Then configure your new target to use the frdm-k64f BSP:
newt target set blinky-frdm-k64f bsp=@apache-mynewt-core/hw/bsp/frdm-k64f
Plug your board in and attach a debugger if necessary, and try running
blinky on your board:
newt run blinky-frdm-k64f
If everything works, a gdb window will come up. Type c <enter>, and
check if your board's LED is blinking.
After you have blinky working on your board, you might want to try one
of these other sample apps:
slinky: Includes shell over UART and newtmgr over shell.
bleprph: Includes BLE stack and newtmgr over BLE.
Thanks,
Chris
