On the customization, you can modify the recipe in: recipes-images/poky/gsrd-console-image.bb

1. add your c file in recipes-images/poky/files (mkdir)
2. In recipes-images/poky/gsrd-console-image.bb, add the followings
   1. FILESEXTRAPATHS:prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
   2. SRC_URI:append = " <CFILE>"
3. Add this under nfs_rootfs() function:
   1. cp ${WORKDIR}/<CFILE> ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/home/root

If you need help or have any questions regarding the GSRD let me know.
