  10. Buildroot is a set of Makefiles and patches that makes it easy to generate a
  11. cross-compilation toolchain and root filesystem for your target Linux
  12. system using the <a href= "http://www.uclibc.org/">uClibc C library</a>.
  13. Buildroot is useful mainly for people working with small or embedded
  14. systems. Embedded systems often use processors that are not the regular
  15. x86 processors everyone is used to using on their PC. It can be PowerPC
  16. processors, MIPS processors, ARM processors, etc. And to be extra safe,
  17. you do not need to be root to build or run Buildroot.
