The ELDK contains the SELF package (SELF = Simple Embedded Linux
Framework) which is intended as a building stone for your own
application images. Instructions how to add files and/or change the
size of the filesystem and how to generate different image formats
(ramdisk, cramfs, JFFS2) can be fund in the DULG. See especially
