There are also many Linux [[:Category:Software distributions|software distributions]] that you can run with this devices, such Ubuntu, Android, Linaro, Poky Linux, etc.
By default, if you power up your board it will run the software on the flash. But you can prepare a MicroSD card and boot from it by inserting it to the MicroSD card reader of your IGEP Processor Board, as it has more priority than the flash.
If you have a brand new IGEP Processor Board you must know that it comes with a firmware provided and installed on it by ISEE.
Therefore, when you power up your board it boots the pre-installed software, which consists on a minimal Linux-based distribution with a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.
If you want to update your pre-installed software, you can create a MicroSD card in your host PC with the latest sofwtare. Then boot your IGEP Processor Board from that MicroSD card.
Finally, you can write the updated software from the MicroSD to the flash memory on your IGEP device
IGEP Processor Boards can [[Boot up sequence|boot from many peripherals]], such Serial Port, MicroSD Card, Flash, etc.
With an external computer, you can download and [[How to boot from MicroSD Card|set a MicroSD card]] and boot your IGEP Processor Board from it by creating two partitions (boot and rootfs) with the right configuration.
Once you have created this MicroSD card, you can boot your IGEP Processor Board from it and transfer this software to its flash memory, boot from it next time without the MicroSD.
