  4. Ethernet cables

  5. USB-Ethernet Adapter

  6. SD Card

Yocto Modification for RDK B+ Support :

                        1. Linux Raspberry pi kernel up gradation from sumo branch(4.14.68) to morty branch in meta-raspberrypi layer

                        2.  Modified linux-firmware bbappend in meta-raspberrypi layer to bring up wireless interface

                        3. Modified bcm2835-bootfiles bbappend and rdk-rpi.inc (added dtb files) in meta-cmf-raspberrypi layer to boot up  RPI B+ Board
