| |
| The files here support configurations that build a microSD image for a |
| minimal system that can be accessed through the serial console. You will |
| need an USB-to-serial interface in order to access that console from |
| your computer: |

| How to build the image |
| ====================== |
| |
| If you have an Acqua module with 256 MiB of RAM, type: |
| |
| $ make acmesystems_acqua_a5_256mb_defconfig |
| |
| If you have the 512 MiB version, type instead: |
| |
| $ make acmesystems_acqua_a5_512mb_defconfig |
| |
| You can optionally tweak the configuration and add packages by typing: |
| |
| $ make menuconfig |
| |
| Then, proceed with the build: |
| |
| $ make |
| |
| How to write the microSD card |
| ============================= |
| |
| The system image is the file "sdcard.img" in the "output/images" |
| directory. Write it to the card by invoking: |
| |
| $ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M |
| |
| where `sdX' is the block device representing the microSD card. |
