Hello,
LWN has published an article entitled ? Tools and distributions for
embedded Linux development ?, written by Tom Parkin, at
http://lwn.net/Articles/384713/ (only available to subscribers for the
moment, will be available freely next week).
Buildroot is cited amongst the different tools for building embedded
Linux systems :
?
Buildroot is perhaps the simplest of the build framework projects.
Buildroot provides a menu-driven configuration similar to that used by
the Linux kernel, and an automated build based around makefiles. It can
be used to build anything from a cross-compilation toolchain right up
to a complete root filesystem for the device. It also provides a simple
mechanism for developers to patch software packages as they are built.
Since its initial release in 2005, Buildroot has achieved considerable
popularity in a range of applications, which can include anything from
chip manufacturer board support packages to embedded firmware for
rugged displays.
?
Thomas
