Bootlin Embedded Linux System Development Training Seminar

An online seminar corresponding to Bootlin's Embedded Linux System Development training course, described with full details on https://bootlin.com/training/embedded-linux-ng/. It is delivered over 7 half-days of 4 hours each.

This course is an improved and updated version of our very popular Embedded Linux System Development course, with a new hardware platform, additional topics and updated contents. Due to the course being new, the materials are not yet published, but many parts will be similar to the one of our older Embedded Linux System Development course, available at https://bootlin.com/training/embedded-linux/.

The sessions will alternate between lectures and live demonstrations made by the trainer on real hardware. The live demonstrations will be made using the ARM-based STMicroelectronics STM32MP157D-DK1 platform. Even though this particular platform is used for the live demonstrations, the course remains perfectly useful and valid regardless of the specific hardware platform used in your projects.

• Dates: Aug 30, 31, Sep 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 2022 (Extra time on Sep 9 will be proposed if needed to complete the agenda.)
• Time: 14:00 to 18:00 (Paris, UTC+2)
• Oral language: English
• Materials language: English
• Agenda: https://bootlin.com/doc/training/embedded-linux-ng/embedded-linux-ng-online-agenda.pdf
• Instructor: Michael Opdenacker (https://bootlin.com/company/staff/michael-opdenacker/)
• Videoconferencing infrastructure: Jitsi Meet

Instructions for joining will be sent to each participant at least 48 hours before the session starts. Each participant is asked to connect 15 minutes before the first session, to make sure her or his setup works (instructions will be sent before the event).

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COURSE

Besides a computer, an audio headset and a good Internet connection, there are no special requirements to attend this course: the practical labs are performed as live demonstrations by the trainer.

However, if you are interested in reproducing the practical labs by yourself, during the time between the sessions, you can purchase the following hardware items:

• STM32MP1 Discovery Kit 1, see ST web site to purchase from various distributors. Note that if the 157D variant is not avaiable, the older 157A variant will also work fine.
• USB-C cable for the power supply
• USB-A to micro B cable for the serial console
• Wii Nunchuk with UEXT connector available from Olimex.
• 4 breadboard wires with male endings such as the ones available from Olimex.
• microSD card of minimum 8 GB capacity
• A standard USB audio device, either a USB audio headset, or a standard USB sound card with headphones connected

Again: having this hardware is NOT mandatory to follow the course. Many course participants follow our courses without having the corresponding hardware, and the course is very useful even without the hardware.
