How to install SSH server to a rootfs on a host computer?

I'm trying to make a custom rootfs image based on "arago-base-tisdk-image-dm37x-evm.tar.gz".


This rootfs image does not include a SSH server, so although the board boots and mounts rootfs correctly, it doesn't response to any SSH connections.


Unfortunately the only way to talk to this board is SSH.

Is there a way do add SSH server to the rootfs image so that when the board mounts rootfs, it can have SSH server up and running?

I do have "dvsdk-dm37x-evm-rootfs.tar.gz" which has already had this done for me, but it's too large for my application.

Can I copy related files from "dvsdk-dm37x-evm-rootfs.tar.gz" to "arago-base-tisdk-image-dm37x-evm.tar.gz"? If so, what files shall I copy?
