Online Embedded Linux Training in Sweden

Buildroot is an open-source initiative that provides scripts to generate a cross-compilation toolchain, a customizable root filesystem image, and a Linux kernel tailored for embedded devices. In this hands-on course, participants will gain practical knowledge on:

• Selecting the software components to include in the root filesystem.
• Adding new packages and modifying existing ones.
• Introducing support for new embedded boards.

The course involves producing bootable filesystem images. Remote sessions utilize the QEMU emulator, whereas in-person classes allow the use of either QEMU or actual embedded boards selected by the instructor.

Projects with similar objectives include the Yocto Project and OpenWRT. We recommend reviewing these presentations to help determine which solution best fits your requirements.

Course Objectives

Gain a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of embedded GNU/Linux, including how its components interconnect. This course clarifies which elements are required to construct an embedded GNU/Linux system, where to source them, and the methods for configuring, building, and installing them. It also addresses support resources and software licensing considerations. Through practical, hands-on exercises, you will acquire the essential skills needed to independently develop your own embedded GNU/Linux systems upon successful completion.

Description

Spanning five days, this training program combines theoretical instruction with practical exercises to elucidate the core concepts of embedded GNU/Linux. It is designed to accelerate your proficiency. The course covers the underlying philosophy, key concepts, and essential commands required to utilize GNU/Linux effectively, blending theoretical knowledge with applied, job-related training.

Instead of starting from scratch, learn from an expert trainer and leave with a robust understanding of GNU/Linux, enabling you to apply it efficiently within your embedded development projects.

Who should attend?

This course is ideal for managers, project managers, software and hardware engineers, development and systems engineers, testers, administrators, technicians, and other stakeholders interested in the technology who wish to quickly grasp how Embedded GNU/Linux operates. It is suitable for those who currently use GNU/Linux or have the luxury of deciding whether to adopt it. It is also appropriate for individuals who have attempted to use Embedded GNU/Linux but are uncertain if they followed best practices, or those using a different operating system who wish to evaluate whether GNU/Linux offers better or more cost-effective solutions.

Delivery Options

While all training materials are in English, the presentation can be delivered in English or German, worldwide, according to your preference.

• Instructor-led on-site training
• Instructor-led online training
• Instructor-led hybrid (on-site/online) training

This two-day course comprises approximately 60% hands-on labs, concentrating on Embedded Linux kernel internals, architecture, and development. Participants will explore techniques for writing and integrating various types of device drivers.

Who should attend?

Engineers interested in Linux kernel development on Embedded systems and platforms.

This two-day course covers the fundamental principles of constructing Embedded Linux systems. Approximately 60% of the training time is dedicated to practical, hands-on implementation of real-world applications, utilizing industry-standard tools and methodologies.

Description

This five-day training program combines practical exercises with expert instruction to demonstrate the key concepts of GNU/Linux kernel internals and device driver development. The course is designed to accelerate your proficiency, covering the processes, concepts, and commands required to write GNU/Linux device drivers through a blend of theoretical knowledge and applied learning.

Instead of starting from scratch, gain valuable insights from an experienced instructor and leave with a functional understanding and the skills to effectively apply this knowledge to your own embedded development projects.

Who should attend?

This course is ideal for individuals interested in or responsible for developing or evaluating GNU/Linux device drivers, including software engineers, field engineers, (project) managers, and hardware engineers.
