Buildroot is a set of Makefiles and patches that
makes it easy generate a cross-compilation
toolchain and root filesystem for your target
Linux system using the uClibc C library. Buildroot
is useful mainly for people working with small or
embedded systems. Embedded systems often use
processors that are not of the same type as the
ones in the computers used for development. You do
not need to be root to build or run buildroot.
