Embedded Linux typically refers to a complete system, or in the Linux vendor, to a distribution targeted at embedded devices.there is no special form of the Linux kernel targeted at embedded applications. Instead, the same Linux kernel source code is intended to be built for the widest range of devices, workstations,and servers imaginable, although obviously it is possible to configure a variety of op-tional features according to the intended use of the kernel. For example, it is unlikely that your embedded device will feature 128 processors and terrabytes of memory, and so it is possible to configure out support for certain features typically found only on larger Linux systems.
