Introduction to Embedded Linux in Theory and Practice - a Crash Course
The aim of this crash course is to provide a basic overview of embedded GNU/Linux. What are the components needed to build an embedded GNU/Linux system where to get them from and how to configure/build/install them? Where to get help from? What about licenses? Hands-on exercises provide you with the necessary practical experience to go ahead and configure/build an embedded GNU/Linux system with mainline components.
This 3-day training class uses hands-on exercises combined with instruction to illustrate some basic concepts of Embedded GNU/Linux. Hands on sessions are performed with Yocto, on a Beagle-Bone Black Rev.C. The whole workshop is designed to bring you quickly up to speed. The concepts and commands necessary to make effective use of Embedded GNU/Linux are described through a combination of theory and on-the-job training. Don’t reinvent the wheel, but learn from an experienced trainer and take home a working knowledge of Embedded GNU/Linux and the ability to use it effectively in your own embedded development project.
You can also book this seminar as an online-private-seminar! Just write us a short non-binding e-mail with the desired date and location as well as the number of participants: training@eclipseina.com
We also offer a training on the topic of the Yocto Project.

Target Group
Project managers, software, hardware, development and systems engineers, technicians and those interested in technology who want to try to understand as quickly as possible how Embedded GNU/Linux works. You have to use GNU/Linux, or have the luxury to decide whether it makes sense to use it or not. You may already use Embedded GNU/Linux, but you are not quite sure if you do everything right. You currently use another operating system and want to find out whether Linux would maybe be more cost effective. . . .
Prerequisites
- Basic knowledge of how to use Linux (Ubuntu)
- Familiarity with embedded C concepts and programming
- Ability to develop software using C syntax
- Basic knowledge of embedded processor development boards
- ... or no fear to learn the aboveand programming
