Introduction

This first chapter of the book is focused on getting you started with Linux on your Intel Galileo board. You will learn how to set up your board out of the box. You will also learn how to install the different Linux images that you can install on the Galileo board. We will also learn how to install Linux on an external SD card that can be inserted into the Galileo board.

We are also going to see how to access a Galileo board remotely, and how to install new modules on it. Finally, we will see how to get rid of the Ethernet cable and use Wi-Fi to access the Galileo board.
