Mastering Linux embedded and Yocto Project (Online Training)

Basic course aimed at beginners with a minimum knowledge of Linux, it provides the information needed to configure and cross-compile the u-boot Bootloader and the Kernel.

This course also provides the information needed to configure and use Yocto Project (and Openembedded), git and bitbake by creating an embeddded Linux distribution from scratch. Management of recipes in overlays with custom layers.

Learn to build and manage embedded Linux systems with the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded.
If you want to not waste time performing time-consuming tasks during the course, this intensive course is perfect for you. In order to save time, some sections are shortened or skipped, such as downloading the packages and the long initial compilation, depending on the needs and interests of the participants.
