<section begin=BELK/>==Building the software components with Advanced use of Yoctobuild system==Yocto can be used to build an entire Linux distribution from source. The build process can be summarized as follows:
*Make sure that all the prerequisites are met
*Initialize the build environment, as described in [[#Initializing the build environment|here]].
The resulting packages (the default format is ipk) can be found inside <code>build/tmp/deploy/ipk</code>.
===Using pre-built package archive=== Starting from BELK 3.0.1 / BXELK 1.0.0, the archive of pre-built packages belonging to <code>openembedded-core</code> layer is available. This allows to install on the target these packages via <code>smart</code> command, as described [[AN-XELK-003:_Package_Management_with_Yocto|here]].  The address of those repositories are detailed in the following table:  {| class="wikitable" border="1"!Name!URL!Description|-|all|https://yocto.dave.eu/belk-latest/all|architecture indipendent packages|-|cortexa9hf_neon|https://yocto.dave.eu/belk-latest/cortexa9hf_neon/|Cortex A9 hf packages|-|bora|https://yocto.dave.eu/belk-latest/bora|BELK/BXELK packages|-|} Please note that:* to point to a specific BELK revision user can substitute <code>latest</code> keyword with the specific <code>x.y.z</code> release (e.g. https://yocto.dave.eu/belk-3.0.1/armv7a_vfp_neon)* not all releases of BELK have a dedicated repository . In case your specific version ismissing you can use the generic ''latest'' release* most of the packages are available inside <code>cortexa9hf_neon</code> repository === Demo on youtube=== {| class="wikitable" | width="100%"| {{#ev: TBD.youtube|7kdR9L4D_E0|500|center|Get smart with SMART package manager on ZYNQ |frame}}|}<section end=BELK/>
