+BFH carme-m4 linuxsupport
+============================
+
+## Synopsis
+
+The following project consists of a minimal setup for the carme-m4 STM32F407 board. The makefile should be easily adaptable to your needs. 
+
+## Motivation
+
+We'd like to enable linux enthusiastic students of the bern university of applied sciences to work with their beloved operating system without setting up a virtual machine just to run *atollic true studio*. ;)
+
+## Installation and required packages
+
+You'll need the following packages installed on your system: 
+
+        arm-none-eabi-binutils
+        arm-none-eabi-gcc
+        arm-none-eabi-gdb
+        arm-none-eabi-newlib
+        stlink
+        make
+
+The package names are taken from the arch linux community repository, hence they may differ on your linux distribution.
+
