6.2 Configuring Linux to match the provided runtime image

  • Install additional utilities on Ubuntu image

  • The user may require utilities like Eclipse IDE, partition manager, minicom etc. The freshly installed Ubuntu-OS will not have those utilities by default. To install required additional utilities refer Appendix J

  • Configure HTTP, FTP and SSH server

  • Refer Appendix B, C and D respectively

  • Create new user and password if required

  • Enable automatic login option if required - Refer Appendix K

  • Place latest Diamond systems universal driver at /usr/local directory.

  • The Ubuntu-20.04.1 LTS kernel version 5.4 has required drivers to support all the peripherals present in the Athena-IV board and now the Linux image is ready for the Athena-IV board.

  • The next step is obviously to take a copy of the Athena-IV Linux image refer Appendix G.
