I know the potentials of Embedded Linux. I am VHDL designer and I have seen people using Petalinux with Xilinx FPGA.
I always had some questions regarding Embedded Linux. But first let me tell you what I know about it.
Yocto was made into Petalinux by Xilinx. It runs on Zynq(I don't know whether on APU or RPU). I know yocto also works on beaglebone hardware.
Now my questions are:
1) How many other types of Embedded Linux are there? Like yocto, petalinux etc?
2) Which platforms( chips ) they can run on? Chip name, company name etc.
3) How many of them are free, means no license for use is needed?
4) Do Embedded Linux works on RPU, APU or Microcontrollers?
5) Can I run Embedded Linux on softcore processors like NiosII or Zynq or Microblaze etc? I am asking this because many FPGAs don't have any block processor on them.
Just share whatever knowledge you have. I want to learn it because may be its time to switch my professional field.
