You will use Yocto Project to build a reference embedded OS
called Poky.

- The examples in this paper assume you are using a native Linux
- system running a recent Ubuntu Linux distribution.
- If the machine you want to use
- Yocto Project on to build an image is not a native Linux
- system, you can still perform these steps by using CROss
- PlatformS (CROPS) and setting up a Poky container.
