* Boot the board and touring the default firmware.
* Connect remotely to the board via Serial interface.
__TOC__
== Requirements ==
In this tutorial we are going to use the following peripherals:
* IGEP SMARC AM335x o iMX moudule with an uSD card
* IGEP SMARC EXPANSION with its power supply
* FTDI cable
* Monitor compatible with HDMI with audio.
* HDMI cable
* Powered USB HUB 2.0
* USB keyboard and a mouse
* Network cable
* PC
== Connect IGEP SMARC Expansion with IGEP SMARC Boards ==

== Booting ==
Before booting, mount J1202 jumper in boot0 position in order to boot from uSD or boot2 position in order to boot from module device (NAND/NOR).
Other boot possibilities can be selected (see SMARC EXPANSION manual)
"Under the hood" the bootloader is preparing to load the linux kernel. The linux kernel loads and initializes the hardware and mounts the root file system.
The firmware in its microSD card consists of a minimal Linux-based distribution with a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.
You can use the mouse and the keyboard to dive into the desktop.

== Network ==
You may now plug the Ethernet cable into the 10/100 Ethernet jack of the board to get network access. The default firmware configures the Ethernet device with dynamic IP address (via DHCP).
== Remote connection via Serial interface ==
