Introduction
Welcome to the Wind River Linux LiveUSB Getting Started Guide. Using the specially configured evaluation environment
provided in this kit you will quickly be able to use Wind River’s market leading development tools and run Wind River Linux
(the industry-leading Linux platform for embedded device development) on the Kontron M2M System. You will also use the
Wind River Tilcon Graphics Suite to see how to quickly develop and deploy rich user interfaces for multifunctional embedded
devices.

Overview
This evaluation leads you through the steps to use Wind River Workbench, configure a Linux kernel and file system, work with
patches, and outline how Wind River tools can aid in the debugging and analysis of embedded systems based on the Kontron
M2M System. It also demonstrates the powerful user interface tool, Tilcon Graphics Suite, and shows how you can develop
professional graphical displays with absolutely no coding.
During this evaluation you will work with two separate systems:
•
A host computer (workstation) on which you will perform tasks such as configuring the Linux OS that runs on the target,
analyzing test results and debugging code. You will also use the host computer to view Wind River documentation and
guide material. The preferred specification for the host computer is outlined below.
•
The Kontron M2M system included in the Kontron M2M Smart Services developer Kit running Wind River Linux, referred to
as a target system.
•
