13 Nov 2007 The OpenMoko environment provides a completely free development environment
for running application and system code on supported phone hardware, eliminating all
dependency on proprietary code. This tutorial introduces the OpenEmbedded build
environment used to create filesystem images for OpenMoko phones, such as the Neo
1973. Prerequisites
This tutorial is for Linux developers with basic software development
experience, and either experience with or interest in telephony and embedded
systems. Basic familiarity with the command line is assumed.
System requirements
Though you don't need a Neo 1973 phone (or any other) to understand the tutorial,
a working OpenMoko target, even
if it's emulated, will be helpful. The tutorial was written using Ubuntu as a host environment, but
virtually any Linux system should work. It's also possible to use Mac OS X or
even Windows as host environments.
