The suite includes a new GUI configuration tool that provides fine-grain configuration of the targeted environment. It also features Red Hat's RedBoot embedded bootloader/BIOS for standardized debugging and bootstrap support, as well as the latest version of Red Hat Linux RPM packages optimized for cross development.

Its GNUPro cross-development tools for all architectures are based on gcc3. Cross-platform development and migration is facilitated with glibc 2.2 libraries for all architectures.

The Embedded Linux Developer Suite is available immediately. Contact Red Hat for pricing and support packages.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
