+=== Notes on using Mender on Buildroot
+======================================
+
+Default configurations files
+----------------------------
+
+Buildroot comes with a default artifact_info and device_type configuration files
+in /etc/mender. They contains default values and thus they should be overridden
+on a production system.
+
+The simplest way to do it is to change these files in an overlay.
+
+Configuring mender with certificates
+------------------------------------
+
+Mender uses TLS to communicate with the management server, and if you use a CA
+signed certificate on the server, you should select the ca-certificates package
+otherwise it will not work.
