Introduction to the MicroSUSE project

von Ulrich Hecht (SUSE Linux Products GmbH / Novell)

Donnerstag, 04.05.2006, Saal 6.2, 15:30-16:00 Uhr

This talk will provide an introduction to the MicroSUSE project, a new Linux distribution that strives to allow system builders to create a complete embedded system out of precompiled binaries, libraries, and kernels, enabling them to concentrate on developing their application instead of wrestling with the GNU toolchain. The audience will learn about the origin, the basic concepts, the implementation, and the current status of MicroSUSE, how to use the MicroSUSE distribution to build embedded systems, as well as how to take part in its development. Time-permitting, a demo of building a complete embedded system from the current MicroSUSE distribution will be shown.
