| Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded |
| Linux systems through cross-compilation. |
| |
| The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text |
| document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. |
| Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html |
| |
| To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: |
| |
| 1) run 'make menuconfig' |
| 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile |
| 3) run 'make' |
| 4) wait while it compiles |
| 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images |
| |
| You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! |
| |
| Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run |
| 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. |
| |
| Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the |
| buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org |
