Embedded Linux is the use of Linux in embedded computer systems. Linux has been ported to a variety of CPUs which are not only primarily used as the processor of a desktop or server computer, but also ARM, AVR32, ETRAX CRIS, FR-V, H8300, IP7000, m68k, MIPS, mn10300, SuperH, and Xtensa processors, It is also used as an alternative to using a proprietary operating system and toolchain. Linux is an open source operating system. It enjoys support by a large group of engineers contributing back into the open source (similar process to the FSF’s GNU tools).This makes Linux a very dynamic and fast moving operating system.
