- <li>Customize the target filesystem skeleton available under <code>
- fs/skeleton/</code>. You can customize configuration files or other
- stuff here. However, the full file hierarchy is not yet present
- because it's created during the compilation process. Therefore, you
- can't do everything on this target filesystem skeleton, but changes to
- it do remain even if you completely rebuild the cross-compilation
- toolchain and the tools. <br /> You can also customize the <code>
- target/generic/device_table.txt</code> file, which is used by the
- tools that generate the target filesystem image to properly set

- deployed into <code>output/target/</code> just before the actual image
- is made. Simply rebuilding the image by running make should propagate
- any new changes to the image.</li>
