Flash vs micro SD
- micro SD cards work best for development
- replaceable
- changes get written to the card, no extra sync required
- flash works best for a production system:
- non-replaceable
- provisions are made to limit write cycles and to prevent inadvertent file system changes
- overlayfs file system merges nonvolatile (flash) and volatile (ram disk) file systems, power-cycling discards all file modifications made during the last session
- an extra sync command (overlay_sync) and a proper reboot is required to commit file system changes to the system flash memory (see overlay_syn usage example 10393_manual#Change_default_ip_address).

Change repository address, branch, hash
- change uri: edit elphel393/projects.json
- change hash: edit elphel393/projects.json:
"elphel-apps-camogm":[ "https://git.elphel.com/Elphel/elphel-apps-camogm.git", "master","" <- leave empty to get the latest, add hash to freeze ],
- change branch: edit elphel393/poky/build/conf/local.conf
ELPHEL393_branches += "elphel-apps-camogm:framepars"
Kernel
Add new driver
- examples in elphel393/linux-elphel/src
- add new files to the tree
- do not forget KConfig and Makefiles
- change kernel config in elphel393_fixold/meta/meta-elphel393/recipes-kernel/linux/config/elphel393.cfg - clean then rebuild the kernel. The cfg file gets copied to the poky's kernel build directory.
Applications
Create new project
The best reference projects are in elphel393/rootfs-elphel/
- Place project files to elphel393/rootfs-elphel/
- Create a recipe in elphel393/meta/meta-elphel393/.../
- In the recipe set package name - it will go to the rootfs recipe elphel393/meta/meta-elphel393/recipes-core/images/core-image-elphel393.bb
- bitbake core-image-elphel393
Project structure
recipe
elphel393/meta/meta-elphel393/recipes-core/init/init_1.0.bb
Note: The recipe and the project sources are in different repos

At some point when building from command line the sysroots link will be created. After sysroots link is there the project can be build from Eclipse IDE
