Before writing your first program, you will need to build the required tools to compile it on your host system (cross compilation). The gnu toolchain will be used.

  • Binutils: several gnu utilities
  • Buildroot / busybox: "swiss knife"
  • GCC: GNU compiler
  • GDB: GNU debugger
  • RootFS: root file system. File system which will be installed on your target
  • UBoot: Bios

Recommended System Requirements

  • HD free space: at least 1.5GB
  • 1Go preferable
  • 2GHz processor with a 533MHz FSB
