Buildroot: a Firmware Generator for Embedded Systems

7 Hours
Buildroot is an open-source project that contains scripts that produce a cross-compilation toolchain, a customizable root filesystem image, and a Linux kernel for embedded devices. During this practical course, participants will learn how to use it:
  • How to select software that goes into the root filesystem.
  • How to add new packages and modify existing ones.
  • How to add support for new embedded boards.
During the course, bootable filesystem images will be produced. Remote courses are delivered using the QEMU emulator, while in the classroom it is possible to use either QEMU or real embedded boards of the trainer's choice. Other projects with similar goals include the Yocto project and OpenWRT. Please use these presentations to determine which one is the right choice for your needs.

The knowledge of the trainer. He was able to answer all of my questions, even questions about our platform. He also continued to help until we all understood the material.
