Here is a list of all supported and tested host systems. The host system is needed to create a firmware for your embedded system.
The list of supported GNU/Linux build systems is not an exclusive one, these are just the ones tested and verified. The other millions of linux distributions are very likely to work, too.
Please install the following software, which is needed to build a basic firmware image. If you choose more packages some more prerequisites might be needed. The ADK host checks will warn you about any software you need to install to compile a specific package. Here is a list of the required software:
The ADK scripts will check for the required versions of these tools in advance.
To build FreeWRT with the ADK it is recommended to have an unprivileged user. Please never build FreeWRT as super user. Because all necessary source tarballs are downloaded from the internet automatically, your host system needs a working internet connection.
