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.
