Most Excellent Introduction and Objective Methodology
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Dr. Hollabaugh has certainly shed useful light on the concept of embedded linux. He intelligently sets the stage and walk you through real steps for deploying a fully embedded linux control and monitoring system. The diagram, table, and code examples will leave you with a very clear understanding of the subject matter (providing you have some background with linux development). Personally, I was totally captivated and found myself extremely happy that I have chosen this book to help thrust foward my own intelligence of embedded linux. This book and website....has become a primary reference for future embedded linux application.
Great book

Hey embedded Linux developers,This book is great. The simple examples clearly illustrate how to get a development system up and running, then how to develop simple device drivers to exercise hardware. I learned from these examples and put them to work on my project immediately. I read the other reviews below and don't know why they didn't like this book, did they even read it?Its a great book, buy it now (its the best [money]spent on embedded Linux available).Satisfied Customer

I picked this book up -- in a word, excellent. Much of the work in this book is very similar to the current embedded project that my company is working on. The specific hardware related topics, and the pictures of oscilliscopes and block diagrams will make the hardware people in my company happy -- the scripts and code will me the software people happy.This book is well written, comprehensive, and a high recommended text for companies undergoing embedded linux project development.
I've known the author for over 20 years

I have not read the book, but I've known the author since high school (over 20 years) and know how much time and care he put into writing it. I've worked on a couple of projects with Craig and have always been blown away by his technical ability. For this book, he took great care in putting together the hardware and software examples and tested everything himself. In addition, he was meticulous about his research. I can say with great confidence that you will not be disappointed if you buy this book.
