-<p>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.</p>
-
-<p>The major Buildroot features are:</p>
-
-<ul>
-
- <li>Can <b>handle everything</b> 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.</li>
-
- <li>Is <b>very easy</b> to set up, thanks to its menuconfig, gconfig
- and xconfig configuration interfaces, familiar to all embedded Linux
- developers. Building a basic embedded Linux system with Buildroot
- typically takes 15-30 minutes.</li>
-
- <li>Supports <b>several hundreds of packages</b> 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.</li>
-
- <li>Supports <b>multiple filesystem types</b> for the root
- filesystem image: JFFS2, UBIFS, tarballs, romfs, cramfs, squashfs
- and more.</li>
-
- <li>Can generate an (e)glibc or uClibc cross-compilation toolchain,
- or re-use your existing glibc, eglibc or uClibc cross-compilation
- toolchain</li>
-
- <li>Has a <b>simple structure</b> that makes it easy to understand
- and extend. It relies only on the well-known Makefile language.</li>
-
-</ul>
