1. Open a terminal
Open a terminal on the host computer.

All the commands preceded by PC $> have to be executed from the host computer terminal.
- Create your STM32MPU workspace directory on your host computer
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace
PC $> cd $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace
2. Check the host computer Internet access
- An Internet access through http and https protocols must be provided.
The command below allows to check for Internet access through http/https protocols:
PC $> wget -q www.google.com && echo "Internet access over HTTP/HTTPS is OK !" || echo "No internet access over HTTP/HTTPS ! You may need to set up a proxy."
If an 'OK' message is returned, the network is well configured.
In such case, skip the rest of this section.
Any other likely situation indicates the need for a proxy for http/https protocols.
The best solution to set a proxy for http/https protocols is via the shell variables http_proxy and https_proxy:
PC $> export http_proxy=http://<MyProxyLogin>:<MyProxyPassword>@<MyProxyServerUrl>:<MyProxyPort>
PC $> export https_proxy=http://<MyProxyLogin>:<MyProxyPassword>@<MyProxyServerUrl>:<MyProxyPort>
Check again the Internet access with command:
PC $> wget -q www.google.com && echo "Internet access over HTTP/HTTPS is OK !" || echo "No internet access over HTTP/HTTPS ! You may need to set up a proxy."
3. Install the tools
3.1. STM32CubeProgrammer
![]() |
|
- Create your STM32MPU tools directory on your host computer
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MPU-Tools
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MPU-Tools/STM32CubeProgrammer-x.y.z
- Create a temporary directory in your STM32MPU workspace
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/tmp
- Download latest STM32CubeProgrammer in the following directory
$HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/tmp
![]() |
ecosystem release ≥ v2.0.0 ![]() |
- Uncompress the archive file to get the STM32CubeProgrammer installers
PC $> cd $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/tmp
PC $> unzip SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer.zip
- Execute the Linux installer, which guides you through the installation process. Select "$HOME/STM32MPU-Tools/STM32CubeProgrammer-x.y.z" as the installation directory, when it's requested by the installer
PC $> ./SetupSTM32CubeProgrammer-x.y.z.linux
Screenshots, done with STM32CubeProgrammer V2.5.0, are given as examples below:


- Add the STM32CubeProgrammer binary path to your PATH environment variable
export PATH=$HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MPU-Tools/STM32CubeProgrammer-x.y.z/bin:$PATH
- Check that the STM32CubeProgrammer tool is properly installed and accessible
PC $> STM32_Programmer_CLI --h
-------------------------------------------------------------------
STM32CubeProgrammer vx.y.z
-------------------------------------------------------------------
3.2. USB serial link
- Install the libusb on your host computer
PC $> sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0
- To allow STM32CubeProgrammer to access the USB port through low-level commands, proceed as follows
PC $> cd $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MPU-Tools/STM32CubeProgrammer-x.y.z/Drivers/rules
PC $> sudo cp *.* /etc/udev/rules.d/

4.1. For ecosystem release v2.1.0 
![]() |
Only microSD card SanDisk Class 10 and UHS Speed Class 1 are verified. Others are not recommended. |
- Create your STM32MP15 Starter Package directory on your host computer
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MP15-Ecosystem-v2.1.0
PC $> mkdir $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MP15-Ecosystem-v2.1.0/Starter-Package
PC $> cd $HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MP15-Ecosystem-v2.1.0/Starter-Package
- Download the STM32MP15-Ecosystem-v2.1.0 Starter Package to the following directory:
$HOME/STM32MPU_workspace/STM32MP15-Ecosystem-v2.1.0/Starter-Package - Uncompress the tarball file to get the binaries for the different partitions of the image, and the Flash layout files
PC $> tar xvf en.FLASH-stm32mp1-openstlinux-5-4-dunfell-mp1-20-11-12.tar.xz
