Openwrt also makes an excellent base embedded distro - it's designed to run from a read-only root which is important for any serious embedded device, whilst still having the ability to add packages. The common ringlogger simplifies system logging, and the UCI settings stuff is well thought out and simplifies device configuration backups/deployment.
- nemik 3y agoWhile OpenWRT is really good and often the best one for really constrained Linux HW, adding features like secure-boot and secure storage to the builds can be much more difficult than on Yocto. Especially when vendors like NXP provide that functionality in their Yocto BSPs. This can be important for commercial projects because a lot of customers are now asking for such features to secure end-devices.
