     Do you need to:
1) build and boot a Linux target with an initial RAM disk;
2) build and boot a Linux target with NFS-mounted root
   file system;
3) build and boot a Linux target from CompactFlash; and
4) assemble a cross-development environment with compiler,
   assembler, linker and build your target kernel, kernel
   modules, application programs and standard shell-level
   utilities such as busybox, all from internet-gathered
   open sources?

     In "Building Embedded Systems with Linux and Open
Source", that's what you'll do.
     This is a four-day, hands-on seminar in using Linux
and open source software to craft embedded systems.
Hands-on, collect it, configure it, build and boot it,
that's what you will do.
     This course will be presented in the San Jose CA
area, August 5-8, 2003 (Tuesday through Friday).
     This course enables software engineers to develop
embedded systems using 100% open source software.
Everything you need is available in the open source
community. RyteTyme offers the "do it" experience you
need to move beyond books and reference manuals. In
this class you will gather the necessary source files,
assemble the cross-development tool chain, build the
bootable kernel and initial RAM disk, boot the target,
reconfigure for an NFS-mounted root file system, build
that file system and reboot the target accordingly.
Then, you will build, configure, burn and boot a
flash-based, completely independent target system.
     At the end of this four day class, you will have
done it all, and all from open source gathered from the
net. (Yes, it's an intense four days: bring your wits.)
     See http://www.rytetyme.com/ for details.
     Hope to see you there!
