IntroductionEdit
Several "distribution" are available for embedded Linux devices. Yocto and Buildroot are just two examples of the most common. Nevertheless, for some applications the use of a desktop/server distribution might be preferable. Since they are not conceived for embedded platforms, these distributions have to be carefully tailored, in order to match hardware resources.[1]
This application note shows how to run one of such distributions - Debian Jessie - on SBC Lynx. Since it is , AXEL_ULite_and_SBC_Lynx_Embedded_Linux_Kit_(XUELK)
[1] Non-volatile storage footprint is the typical example. Disk occupation of a desktop distribution is measure in GB or tens of GB, while many embedded platforms have less the 1 GB of flash memory.
