| 6 <p>Firmware Linux is an embedded Linux build system, designed to eliminate | |
| 7 the need for cross compiling.</p> | |
| 8 | |
| 9 <p>The build system is a series of bash scripts which create a small native | |
| 10 Linux development environment for each target, runnable on real hardware or | |
| 11 under emulators such as <a href=http://qemu.org>QEMU</a>.</p> | |
| 12 | |
| 13 <p>Currently supported targets include arm, mips, powerpc, x86, and x86-64. | |
| 14 Partial support is available for sparc, sh4, and m68k.</p> | |
| 15 | |
| 16 <p>For more information, see <a href=documentation.html>the documentation | |
