Course Objectives

To provide a clear understanding of the essentials of embedded GNU/Linux, explaining how the various components fit together. You will learn what is required to build an embedded GNU/Linux system, where to source the necessary elements, and how to configure, build, and install them. The course also covers where to find support and addresses critical questions regarding software licensing. Through hands-on exercises, you will gain the practical experience needed to confidently develop your own embedded GNU/Linux systems upon successful completion of this training.

Description

This five-day training programme combines practical exercises with expert instruction to illustrate the core concepts of embedded GNU/Linux, designed to get you up to speed quickly. The philosophy, concepts, and commands essential for effective use of GNU/Linux are explained through a blend of theoretical knowledge and on-the-job training.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, learn from an experienced trainer and take away a working knowledge of GNU/Linux, along with the ability to apply it effectively in your own embedded development projects.

Who should attend?

This course is ideal for managers, project managers, software, hardware, development, and systems engineers, testers, administrators, technicians, and any other stakeholders interested in the technology who wish to understand how Embedded GNU/Linux works as quickly as possible. You should either already be using GNU/Linux or have the latitude to decide whether adopting it makes sense for your needs. Perhaps you have already attempted to use Embedded GNU/Linux but are unsure if you followed the correct approach. Alternatively, you may currently be using a different operating system and want to determine whether GNU/Linux could offer a better and/or more cost-effective solution.

Delivery Options

All training materials are provided in English, but the delivery of the content can be conducted in either English or German, according to your preference, with global availability.
