Overview
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.
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.
The pre-installed software consists on a minimal Linux-based distribution with a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.
About the pre-installed software
The pre-installed software consists on:
- IGEP X-loader: a bootloader compatible with all IGEP Processor Boards.
- IGEP Kernel: a Linux Kernel maintained by ISEE.
- Poky firmware: the software distribution consists on a lite X Window System and GNOME Mobile based applications created with Poky Platform Builder.

Update the firmware or create a customized MicroSD
You can update the pre-installed software of your IGEP Processor Board to a current release:
You can also create a customized MicroSD with specific software distributions:
