-Buildroot is a set of Makefiles and patches that makes it easy to generate a

-Buildroot is useful mainly for people working with small or embedded

-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,

+Buildroot is a set of Makefiles and patches that makes it easy to
+generate a complete embedded Linux system. Buildroot can generate any
+or all of a cross-compilation toolchain, a root filesystem, a kernel
+image and a bootloader image. Buildroot is useful mainly for people
+working with small or embedded systems, using various CPU
+architectures (x86, ARM, MIPS, PowerPC, etc.) : it automates the
+building process of your embedded system and eases the
+cross-compilation process.

The major Buildroot features are:

+
+
+ - Can handle everything in your embedded system development
+ project: cross-compiling toolchain, root filesystem generation,
+ kernel image compilation and bootloader compilation. Buildroot is
+ also sufficiently flexible that it can also be used for only one or
+ several of these steps.
+
+ - Is very easy to set up, thanks to its menuconfig and
+ xconfig configuration interfaces, familiar to all embedded Linux
+ developers. Building a basic embedded Linux system with Buildroot
+ typically takes 15-30 minutes.
+
+ - Supports several hundreds of packages for userspace
+ applications and libraries: X.org stack, Gtk2, Qt, DirectFB, SDL,
+ GStreamer and a large number of network-related and system-related
+ utilities and libraries are supported.
+
+ - Supports multiple filesystem types for the root
+ filesystem image: JFFS2, UBIFS, tarballs, romfs, cramfs, squashfs
+ and more.
+
+ - Can generate an uClibc cross-compilation toolchain, or re-use
+ your existing glibc, eglibc or uClibc cross-compilation
+ toolchain
+
+ - Has a simple structure that makes it easy to understand
+ and extend. It relies only on the well-know Makefile language.
