How to Learn Embedded Linux (For Free Again)

,----[ Quote ]
| In the past few years, the use of Linux in
| embedded devices has skyrocketed.
| Televisions, phones, cars, ATMs: you name
| it, it probably has Linux running in it.
| At the recent Mobile World Congress, Linux
| dominated virtually every product
| announcement: Samsungâs Bada, many new
| Android phones, the Linux Foundationâs
| MeeGo project, Palm, and many more.
| Embedded Linux today has been nearly as
| disruptive as Linux was in the data center
| in the 90s and 2000s as it displaced
| proprietary Unix OSes.

Embedded Linux research report ships

,----[ Quote ]
| EDC noted that some 40 percent of the survey's 500 respondents were targeting
| embedded Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| Also in the earlier reports, Andrews observed that the need for RTOS source
| code was "one of the reasons that proprietary RTOSes created in-house for a
| specific system have long been popular, and now it's a primary motivating
| factor in the adoption of Embedded Linux."
|
| The now completed survey results are said to include "expert analysis" from
| Ann Thryft, a 20-year industry veteran. The report includes chapters on
| platforms, processors, tools, languages, security, target devices, mobile
| development, and of course, Linux.
