Kernel Config/ Adding applications/ Building Images

Hello

I have a question concerning how to build a customized image.

I followed this link first to get a general Idea

After that, I found that if I need to customize my Kernel and choose my packages (Customer apps) I can follow these links: Customer App and Kernel config

1- Should I customize before building my image using "bitbake <image>"

or after (I suppose before but just asking)

Just to be clear I will give some examples:

  • Customer app will be used to add packages that may not be present
  • Kernel configurations: To activate modules and features for example security, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi features.

2- In which file do I need to be in order to apply the modifications that I want in my final image that I will flash.

Best regards

Well Basically I am working on an IoT Project.

The First step is to learn how to set up my Linux image (Kernel Configuration and Package customization).

This means that I have to build an image where all the tools libs packages drivers and modules are available.
