DevHeads Demos: Navigating the Buildroot Menuconfig
If you want a specialized Linux implementation, you want buildroot. It allows devs to trim the fat off the normally-bloated Linux operating system by selecting only the packages they need for a particular application — and thereby reducing footprint and boot time.
If you're new to buildroot, one of the first things you'll encounter is the menuconfig, which can be a tricky maze if you're not familiar with it. In this DevHeads Demo, embedded software expert @abhishek awasthi helps us navigate the buildroot menuconfig, select packages, build a custom Linux system, and boot it on a Raspberry Pi — all in just a few minutes.
