As far as I have understood, the built-in environment for Tegra sets a minimal set of rules and scripts that allow to load a full environment from another script stored on a media (mmc or usb). This is also a good statement, because the environment is not so fine defined and let easy customization. > looking at how tegra is being done should provide a solid > guide.
