Buildroot is a set of Makefiles and patches that makes it easy generate a
|
|
|
|
|
cross-compilation toolchain and root filesystem for your target Linux
|
|
|
|
|
system using the <a href= "http://www.uclibc.org/">uClibc C library</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
Buildroot is useful mainly for people working with small or embedded
|
|
|
|
|
systems. Embedded systems often use processors that are not the regular
|
|
|
|
|
x86 processors everyone is used to using on their PC. It can be PowerPC
|
|
|
|
|
processors, MIPS processors, ARM processors, etc. And to be extra safe,
|
|
|
|
|
you do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And as of today buildroot even has its own webpage, making it a first class
|
|
|
|
|
citizen of uclibc.org and busybox.net, and more importantly, make it easy
|
|
|
|
|
to find and point to buildroot.
