Summary

In this chapter, you have learned about the Linux rootfs in general, and also about the communication with the organization of the Linux kernel, Linux rootfs, its principles, content, and device drivers. Since communication tends to become larger over time, information about how a minimal filesystem should look was also presented to you.

Besides this information, in the next chapter, you will be given an overview of the available components of the Yocto Project, since most of them are outside Poky. You will also be introduced to, and given a brief gist of, each component. After this chapter, a bunch of them will be presented to you and elaborated on.
