12 pages with new training materials!
We are happy to release many new training materials that we created along the course of 2008, for our embedded Linux and kernel training sessions:
- New features in Linux 2.6 (since Linux 2.6.10)
- ARM Linux specifics
- Kernel initialization
- Choosing filesystems (now part of our Embedded Linux course slides)
- Porting Linux to new hardware (now part of our Embedded Linux kernel course slides)
- Power management (now part of our Embedded Linux kernel course slides)
- Linux PCI drivers
- Block device drivers
- The blob bootloader
- The Scratchbox development environment
- Linux virtualization solutions (with an embedded perspective)
- SSH
Many thanks to customers who asked us to cover new topics!
This is actually the tip of the iceberg (with penguins standing on top of it, of course). The documents that have been around for a long time have also undergone significant improvements and have been updated every time new versions with interesting features were released. We are doing our best to keep our training sessions up to date, and this keeps us pretty busy! So, if you haven’t had a look at these documents for a while, you will probably learn new things if you open them again.
Why so many documents at once? Well, we usually try to release the new documents that we create as early as possible. Here are a few excuses for doing this late this time:
- We’ve had a very busy year (new training sessions, development and service work), preventing us from polishing our new documents and creating new pages describing them.
- The switch to our new website took more time than expected. We were reluctant to add more pages that would have caused more migration work, and we were also busy deploying the KVM virtualization technology on our new server.
- We are also switching the documents to a new template, which leaves more space for real content and less space for logos and for information repeated on every page. This work is far from being over yet!
- We couldn’t release them for National Security reasons
.
Now that there’s no infrastructure work left, and that we have run out of excuses (except the one about being busy, we still are), we should be able to release our new documents much earlier.
So, stay tuned on our RSS feed, more will come soon!
