<h2><a name="custom_targetfs" id="custom_targetfs"></a>Customizing the
target filesystem</h2>
<li>You can customize the target filesystem skeleton, available under
<code>package/base-files/default/</code>. You can change
configuration files or other stuff here. However, the full file hierarchy
is not yet present, because it's created during the compilation process.
So you can't do everything on this target filesystem skeleton, but
changes to it remains even when you completely rebuild the cross-compilation
toolchain and the tools.<br />
<p>There are two ways to customize the resulting target filesystem:</p>
<ul>
<li>Customize the target filesystem directly, and rebuild the image. The
target filesystem is available under <code>build_ARCH/root/</code> where
<code>ARCH</code> is the chosen target architecture, usually mipsel.
You can simply make your changes here, and run make target_install afterwards,
which will rebuild the target filesystem image. This method allows to do
everything on the target filesystem, but if you decide to rebuild your toolchain,
tools or packages, these changes will be lost.</li>
