-Inside the FreeRunner 3 software components are working:
-* '''bootloader''': a small program that runs first and starts everything else when the FreeRunner is powered on or reset (depending on [[Booting the Neo FreeRunner|how you reset it]], the version from [[NOR_Flash|NOR]] or NAND is booted).
-* '''kernel''': the central component in the Linux operating system.
-* '''root filesystem''': contains all the files that make up the commands and applications that you can run.
-* Furthermore for the installation you have to format your MicroSD-Card because Android will store data on it.
