==Introduction==
From the software standpoint, [[Bora Embedded Linux Kit (BELK)|Bora Embedded Linux Kit (BELK)]] and [[BoraX_Embedded_Linux_Kit_(BXELK)|BoraX Embedded Linux Kit (BXELK)]] are built on top of Zynq Linux BSP released by Xilinx. Customization Customizations are added to support for the Bora and BoraX platforms, in particular at bootloader and Linux kernel levels. BELK and BXELK share the '''same''' software modules, even if they are based on different hardware platforms.
Reading of [[Host_setup_and_development_flow_(BXELK)|this document]] is strongly recommended to understand the logical structure of the kits and how the software components are related.
The following table details the software modules of BELK/BXELK releases.
