<answer>
<para>
You need to create a form factor file as described in
<xref linkend='bsp-filelayout-misc-recipes'>"Miscellaneous Recipe Files"</xref>
and set the <filename>HAVE_TOUCHSCREEN</filename> variable equal to one.
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
HAVE_TOUCHSCREEN=1
</literallayout>

How do I make sure connected network interfaces are brought up by default?
</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>
The default interfaces file provided by the netbase recipe does not
automatically bring up network interfaces.
Therefore you will need to add a BSP-specific netbase that includes an interfaces
file.
See <xref linkend='bsp-filelayout-misc-recipes'>"Miscellaneous Recipe Files"</xref>
for information on creating these types of miscellaneous recipe files.

<para>
For example, add the following files to your layer:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
meta-MACHINE/recipes-bsp/netbase/netbase/MACHINE/interfaces
meta-MACHINE/recipes-bsp/netbase/netbase_4.44.bbappend
</literallayout>

How do I create images with more free space?
</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>
Images are created to be 1.2 times the size of the populated root filesystem.
To modify this ratio so that there is more free space available you need to
set the configuration value <filename>IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR</filename>.
For example, setting <filename>IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR</filename> to 1.5 sets
the image size ratio to one and a half times the size of the populated
root filesystem.
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
IMAGE_OVERHEAD_FACTOR = "1.5"
</literallayout>
