1. What is the Yocto build utility? What is the Linux Console with framebuffer?

2. There are several Linux distributions in the document, namely Ubuntu and LXDE versions.

LXDE is a streamlined, lightweight version of Linux that focuses on performance. Compared with KDE, it is more gorgeous but has high requirements on system resources.

3. As a combination of ARM+FPGA, there are three channels between the two blocks for communication between ARM and FPGA, which allow the two parts to transmit data, collectively known as HPS-FPGA AXI Bridges.

They are:
FPGA-to-HPS Bridge
HPS-to-FPGA Bridge
Lightweight HPS-to-FPGA Bridge
FPGA-to-HPS and HPS-to-FPGA Bridge are broadband and high-speed transmission channels between FPGA and HPS.
Lightweight HPS-to-FPGA is a lower-speed control channel .

4. First install quartus13.1, then install SOC EDS. When the SOC EDS installation is complete, there will be a check box prompting you to start installing ARM DS-5.

I quit my job right after I bought DE1-SOC, haha.
