=Introduction=
[http://www.canonical.com/ Canonical], the company behind the well-known [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu] GNU/Linux distribution, is now sharing a minimal filesystem for ARM architecture called '''Ubuntu Core'''. This basic root file system works perfectly with platforms based on the Sitara processors, as Naon and Lizard. It contains the APT software so the file system can be easily customized installing additional packages.
