Distributing 2.6

Distributing 2.6

Parent article: Distributing 2.6

Development cycles for embedded devices tend to
be reasonably long. If devices based on a 2.6
kernel are going to be available in six months time,
developers need to start working with 2.6 now.
There will be new versions of the kernel as it
matures, but migration between them will hopefully
be simple.

SnapGear has gone to the effort of collecting
and integrating the 2.6 kernel, toolchains and libraries
into a single package to simplify the development process
for our own embedded developers and others. We hope
you like it, but we don't get any revenue from the
distribution and won't be offended if you don't :)

For those with a more conservative bent, the SnapGear
Embedded Linux release also provides 2.0 and 2.4 kernels.
