Free embedded Linux training: one year after

After the first release of the free materials of its Embedded Linux 
Training in October 2004, Free Electrons (http://free-electrons.com) 
released a summary of the numerous improvements brought to this training 
in 1 year: http://free-electrons.com/news/news.2005-10-15

A few highlights: 13 lectures or presentations (1000 pages, doubled in 1 
year), 11 practical labs, a dedicated live distribution for embedded 
system and kernel developers, translations to several languages.

Of course, this training targets corporate sessions which constitute its 
main source of funding, but it is also meant to be used by any 
individual interested in self-training. In addition, the use of the 
SkyEye emulator (http://skyeye.org) allows users to practise with 
cross-compiling and booting on non-PC hardware without having to 
purchase expensive development boards.

Though the main target is the development of embedded systems, this 
training includes a number of resources useful to regular developers and 
users on the GNU/Linux and other Unix-like operating systems: Unix 
command line, linux kernel and driver development, lightweight tools, 
audio, multimedia, development tools... Check them out!

All kinds of contributions are welcomed by Free Electrons: corrections, 
suggestions, improvements, translations as well as hyperlinks to these 
resources, to increase their visibility in search engines.
