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

375 </question>
376 <answer>
377 <para>
378 The default interfaces file provided by the netbase recipe does not
379 automatically bring up network interfaces.
380 Therefore you will need to add a BSP-specific netbase that includes an interfaces
381 file.
382 See <xref linkend='bsp-filelayout-misc-recipes'>"Miscellaneous Recipe Files"</xref>
383 for information on creating these types of miscellaneous recipe files.

386 For example, add the following files to your layer:
387 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
388 meta-MACHINE/recipes-bsp/netbase/netbase/MACHINE/interfaces

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