The procedure was tested on an SBC Lynx with ConfigID=0x0000000C (PCB revision CS214515A), starting from XUELK 1.1.3 binaries.
 
[2] The provided root file system is derived from this one: https://rcn-ee.com/rootfs/eewiki/barefs/debian-8.7-bare-armhf-2017-01-14.tar.xz.
===Using the raw image===
For convenience, the raw image of the microSD card is provided as well. This image is the result of the procedure described in the previous section, applied to a 16 GB card. The image can be downloaded [https://mirror.dave.eu/lynx/debian/20170403/20170403-sbclynx-debian-8-usd.zip here].
 
Once decompressed, it can be written directly to the card.
 
On a Linux host issue the following command (assuming the card is associated to the <code>/dec/sdc</code> device file):
<pre class="board-terminal">
sudo dd if=/path/to/20170403-sbclynx-debian-8-usd.img of=/dev/sdc oflag=sync
</pre>
 
In case your host is a Windows machine, you can use the well-known ''Win32 Disk Imager'' tool. It can be downloaded [https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ here].
 
 
[[File:Sbclynx-debian-disk-imager-win.png|thumb|center|600px|''Win32 Disk Imager'' tool]]
 
 
After installing it, open it and (see also the image above):
#select the raw image file
#select the drive letter of the microSD card
#press ''Write''.
==Adding packages==
[ Wrote 9 lines ]
</pre>
Please note the that these changes will take effect after rebooting the machine. 
DNS server has also to be enabled, in order to resolve URLs. Again, <code>nano</code> comes to help:
</pre>
 
You can finally install the desired packages, as shown in the following examples:
In principle, the physical interfaces can be accessed the same way as described for the [[Physical_devices_mapping_(XUELK)|Yocto root file system]]. However, some of them require a different approach. For more details, please refer to the following sections.
===Ethernet===
Please refer to See [[#Adding packages|this section]]. 
===Bluetooth and WiFi===
The root file system contains the same calibration file indicated [[XUELK-AN-001:_Using_WiFi-Bluetooth_combo_plugin_with_SBC_Lynx#Calibration|here]].
====Bluetooth====
The following script can be run to enable the Bluetooth controller:
<preclass="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# ./test/dwm_bt_init.sh
Found a Texas Instruments' chip!
</pre>
Once the <code>hci</code> interface is enabled, <code>hcitool</code> or other tools can be used to access it:
<preclass="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# hcitool scan
Scanning ...
zz:zz:zz:zz:zz:zz device2
</pre>
 
====WiFi (client mode)====
The procedure here described can be used to connect to an Access Point, using the WPA2/PSK security protocolwith network address given by the AP via DHCP. User can also follow [https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse#Command_Line this guide from Debian Wiki] for a generic approach.
As the WiFi driver is not statically linked to the kernel image, it is necessary to load the module first. This operation is done automatically done upon boot, as the module is listed in <code>/etc/modules</code>:
<pre class="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# cat /etc/modules
</pre>
 To bring Once the WiFi module is loaded, it's time to configure the interface up: first of all we need to fix interface renaming with the following command:
<pre class="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# iw ln -s /devphy#0 Interface wlan0 ifindex 4 wdev 0x1 addr 88:33:14:5e:30:61 type managedroot@arm:~# ip link show wlan04: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000 link/ether 88:33:14:5e:30:61 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ffroot@arm:~# ip link set wlan0 up[ 276null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.076847] wlcore: firmware booted (Rev 6.3.10.0.133)[ 276.097912] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not readyroot@arm:~# ip link show wlan04: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq qlen 1000 link/ether 88:33:14:5e:30:61 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ffroot@arm:~# iw wlan0 linkNot connected.
</pre>
 The connection will be established with Generate the SSID named PSK from the ESSID and the clear text passphrase using <code>SSID_ZyXEL_WPA2wpa_passphrase</code>tool:
<pre class="board-terminal">

</pre>
Edit <code>/etc/network/interfaces</code> and change the <code>wlan0</code> configuration as follows, by entering the <code>ssid</code> and <code>psk</code> generated above:
<pre class="board-terminal">
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid SSID_ZyXEL_WPA2

ec41b79ebdf10022908aa10189b0341f095fd62eeb719a67c5c920e0cde28564
</pre>
Start User can now restart <code>wpa_supplicantsystemd</code>networking service with:
<pre class="board-terminal">

</pre>
 Once Now you can check the connection process completed successfullysystem configuration using standard tools (<code>route</code>, <code>ifconfig</code>, <code>iw</code> reports ). E.g. to check the WiFi link status as followsuse:
<pre class="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# iw wlan0 link
dtim period: 1
beacon int: 100
</pre>All of the above configuration are persistent at reboots and automatically started by <code>systemd</code> at boot time.
 
==Miscellaneous configurations==
===<code>ssh</code> server===
The configuration file <code>/etc/ssh/sshd_config</code> is set to permit <code>root</code> user to log in.
===Installing MySQL server with remote access===
This section shows how to install MySQL server and how to enable remote access for <code>root</code> user.
{{ImportantMessage|text=From a security standpoint, giving <code>root</code> user logon permission from any host may be dangerous.
}}
 
 
Firstly, install the <code>mysql-server</code> package. During the installation process, you will set the password for the <code>root</code> user:
<pre class="board-terminal">
root@arm:~# sudo apt-get update
Get:1 http://security.debian.org jessie/updates InRelease [63.1 kB]
...
Reading package lists... Done
root@arm:~# sudo apt-get install mysql-server
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
...
After this operation, 85.1 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
Get:1 http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates/main mysql-common all 5.5.54-0+deb8u1 [81.2 kB]
...
Configuring mysql-server-5.5
----------------------------
 
While not mandatory, it is highly recommended that you set a password for the
MySQL administrative "root" user.
 
If this field is left blank, the password will not be changed.
 
New password for the MySQL "root" user:
 
 
 
Repeat password for the MySQL "root" user:
 
 
Selecting previously unselected package libaio1:armhf.
...

Verify the server is up and running:
<pre class="board-terminal">
