    Embedded Linux Kernel Make With Compressed Boot PDF

    Uploaded by

    Mochamad Rizal Jauhari
    The document discusses the Linux kernel build and boot process for embedded systems. It begins by explaining how to build the kernel using make. It then describes the key files and directories involved, including the head file which initializes registers and disables caches before jumping to startup functions. Finally, it outlines the boot sequence where the boot block loads the head and misc files from flash into RAM, which then load and run the kernel and optional initrd files.
