It all depend how you want to do it, the most simple way is way is with a shell script, the commands are described here https://www.olimex.com/wiki/A13-OLinuXino#Linux

An other way is with a Python script, you have to install python module you find here first
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyA13/

If you want to program in C you find an example here

download the python module

$ tar -zxvf pyA13-0.2.2.tar.gz
$ cd pyA13-0.2.2
$ sudo python setup.py install


I believe everything you depend on is already installed on the image.

Most likely there are errors in your image or sd card, try it with an other card or unpack the image again

Some reason why you don't download it?  (Or even build one.)

The net has many articles about building Linux.  Choose what you want and do it.

You may instead be able to BUY what you want from Olimex.
