few month past i came to know with my observation that embedded linux demands in market going high and i must have to upgrade myself from 8/16 bit processors to 32/64 bit. but i did not understand why and how i had to upgrade. i have posted in different forum for help but the unfortunately the thing that experts can only solve us project related problem and only guide us little.But my interest at last win and i found a .net friend who have worked a little and post of praveen. the both just gave me a track .i want to share what was the track for beginner
the question why we use embedded linux is assignment for you people.
1) first thing install ubuntu linux to your pc or laptop
2) just learn few commands for using terminal(you may found terminal by just searching or by googling) like how to list directories, how to go to different directies. etc
3) just download "intro to gcc " book and its examples and start your work.
(note: ubuntu have built in gcc for programming.)
4) in parallel you may have to start reading "build an embedded linux system"
we must know that . Any Linux platform consists of three basic elements:
• Linux kernel:
A version of the Linux kernel compiled for a specific architecture and
processor; provides support for onboard devices, buses, mandatory communication and
data exchange protocols, and commonly encountered peripherals
• Root file system:
A set of system and application software packages that can be used
to create a root file system that supports mandatory system services and from which
application software can be started
• Toolchain:
A compiler and associated utilities that enable developers to produce
application software that runs on the target hardware
