As such, the two partitions are mounted as /media/BOOT and /media/ROOTFS. It is assumed that the microSD card is connected to the host machine. replacing the default Yocto root file system delivered along with the XUELK, with the Debian one.adding a modified version of the Linux kernel image.Starting from such a card, we need to do the following operations: It is worth to remember that such a microSD card can be created following the instructions described here. In other words, a microSD card containing Linux kernel image, device tree blob, and decompressed root file system will be used. Initial configuration įor the sake of simplicity, the same approach described here will be used. Disk occupation of a desktop distribution is measured in GB or tens of GB, while many embedded platforms have less the 1 GB of flash memory. Non-volatile storage footprint is the typical example. The procedure was tested on an SBC Lynx with ConfigID=0x0000000C (PCB revision CS214515A), starting from XUELK 1.1.3 binaries. It is assumed that the reader if already familiar with AXEL ULite and SBC Lynx Embedded Linux Kit (XUELK), as it is the basis of this work. This application note shows how to run one of such distributions - Debian Jessie - on SBC Lynx. Since they are not conceived for embedded platforms, these distributions have to be carefully tailored, in order to match hardware resources. Nevertheless, for some applications the use of a desktop/server distribution might be preferable. Yocto and Buildroot are just two examples of the most common. Several distributions are available for embedded Linux devices. Added notes about MySQL server installation and configuration.Added notes about ssh server configuration.Added several packages to the root file system.6.2 Installing MySQL server with remote access.
