Revision as of 10:08, 3 September 2018

Features

  • Supports Debian 9
  • Linux kernel 4.4 (official version)
  • U-Boot 2014.07
  • ARM GCC based cross toolchain
  • Integrated build system

Main Components

File system

Ext4 file system is used as default root file system. This includes all the files, libraries, drivers, nodes and others entries, that will be mounted in the target board when Linux finishes to boot up.

For Linbian OS, the rootfs created from a Debian base system (only support armel architectures currently, armhf architectures will be supported in the near future). It's easy to install packages via apt-get.

Kernel

This includes all drivers.

Bootloader

The bootloader loads kernel.

Toolchain

Used to build kernel, libraries and applications for the target hardware.
