Linux for Embedded Systems
Mark Kraeling and Andrew McKay
Linux continues to grow as an operating system of choice in many embedded systems such as networking, wireless, and base stations. In this chapter we look at possible uses of Linux in embedded systems. The chapter covers getting a Linux kernel set up, getting started with creating your Linux baseline, and the initial steps of getting an application running on the platform. If you haven’t used Linux for an embedded system before, this chapter will cover all of the basic steps to get you going!
