Introduction
Overview
This guide introduces developers to the support for customizing the Linux system on the Lantronix line of embedded and ready-to-deploy Intelligent Gateway products. It describes how to compile, load, and run custom programs on Lantronix devices, modify the Linux kernel to load custom drivers, and create images to deploy to your device.
Supported Lantronix Products
The following Lantronix products can be customized using the Linux Timesys development environment.
Getting Started
Setup a Linux host
To compile custom programs and create the image for the PremierWave devices, you will need a computer running Linux. You can setup a computer to boot into Linux, or use a virtual environment such as VMWare Player or VirtualBox to run the Linux operating system as a Guest Operating System. Lantronix has tested recent version of the Ubuntu Linux distribution.
