Note that building the Linux image from scratch is a time-consuming task. Even with powerful 
machine and fast internet connection it might take few hours compiling. Some Linux distributions 
might lack the tools required to compile/build/execute scripts/download from repository – how to 
get those is not discussed below. 

The Linux image is created and downloaded from 

. For the test here we used Debian 6.0 with GNOME visual libraries. The steps we did:

1) From the terminal created folder “bin” in home folder:

user@dist$: mkdir bin
user@dist$: cd bin

Add bin directory to PATH in order to do the next steps easier. Else navigate to the right folders.

2) Installed `repo` utility needed for the bitbake file fetching from the repository:

user@dist$: curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
user@dist$: chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

3) Created directory for the project and download the BSP source from the git repository:
