Guide

• Image

  Build which kind of disk image (single partition or combined image) deps the devkit needs.

  You can just edit the origin disk image if disk space is ok.

  Otherwise you may need create a new blank image by dd.

  Combined image aslo can be created by dd, you just need load disk layout file by fdisk.

• Porting

  Porting linux distro, you need the kernel firmware fstab etc, so backup them first of all.

  Then copy the prebuilt linux distro root files.

  After file operation, you may need some configuration, like user password, extra software.

  Then flash it, boot it, debug it, re-edit someting...

Wishing

It's pretty easy task after this tool handling some dirty work, so have fun!
