There are also complete guidelines for installing and configuring a bootloader for the target. cross-compiling a slew of utilities and packages, debugging your embedded system using a plethora of tools and techniques, using the uClibc, BusyBox, U-Boot, OpenSSH, thttpd, tftp, strace, and gdb packages.
By presenting how to build the operating system components from pristine sources and how to find more documentation or help, this book greatly simplifies the task of keeping complete control over your embedded operating system. This book should be essential reading for embedded system designers at experience who intend to use Linux in current or future projects.
