B.1 Online
With
the ever-increasing popularity of "embedded
Linux," many sites have been created to help
potential users and adopters. Here is a list of such sites in
alphabetical order:
- All Linux Devices (http://alllinuxdevices.com/)
-
Contains links to stories and news items related to embedded Linux.
Maintained as part of Internet.com's Linux
resources.
- Embedded-Linux.de (http://embedded-linux.de/)
-
German-language site providing updates about the releases of some of
the main open source packages used in embedded Linux systems, such as
BusyBox and uClibc.
- LinuxAutomation (http://www.linux-automation.de/)
-
Contains a well-organized set of links to various resources related
to the use of Linux in automation applications. Though the
site's main page is in German, a link is provided to
an English version of the same site. Maintained by Robert Schwebel.
- LinuxDevices.com (http://www.linuxdevices.com/)
-
Contains lots of industry-related news items. Also contains articles
about open source and free software community developments, but
clearly has a commercial perspective. This site provides many
introductory guides and is frequently updated. Likely the most
visible embedded Linux site around.
- Linux Documentation Project (http://www.tldp.org/)
-
The main repository for HOWTOs, FAQs, and other guides about open
source and free software packages. Probably one of the most important
Linux resources given the breadth and depth of issues covered by its
documents. This site is community maintained.
- SiliconPenguin.com (http://www.siliconpenguin.com/)
-
Contains a collection of links to embedded Linux-related material.
- uCdot (http://www.ucdot.org/)
-
A news and community site for uClinux users.
Though
this list includes sites that specialize in providing information
about embedded Linux, there are many other sites that provide general
Linux information which you may find useful. Consult
Running Linux for such sites.
