XUELK-AN-004: Running OpenWrt distribution

147 bytes added, 10:27, 17 February 2017
Introduction
By default, [[AXEL_ULite_and_SBC_Lynx_Embedded_Linux_Kit_(XUELK)|AXEL ULite and SBC Lynx Embedded Linux Kit (XUELK)]] comes with a Yocto distribution. Nevertheless, other distributions can be used as well. This application shows how to run one of them, [https://openwrt.org OpenWrt].
Generally speaking, OpenWrt is particularly suited for networking devices such as routers and access points. As such, it can be very useful when used in combination with SBC Lynx , to address similar networking-related use cases.
An exhaustive discussion of OpenWrt is beyond the scope of this application note. For more information, please refer to [https://openwrt.org the project's home page].
The test bed used for this application note is composed of the same hardware/software platform delivered along with the XUELK. The only relevant difference is related to the root file system, that is replaced with the one generated by the OpenWrt build process.
