Configuring a host system

The process needed to set up our host system depends on the distribution we run on it. Poky has a set of supported Linux distributions, and if we are new to embedded Linux development, it is advisable to use one of the supported Linux distributions to avoid wasting time debugging build issues related to the host system support. Currently, the supported distributions are the following:

Ubuntu 12.04 (LTS)
Ubuntu 13.10
Ubuntu 14.04 (LTS)
Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger's Cat)
Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug)
CentOS release 6.4
CentOS release 6.5
Debian GNU/Linux 7.x (Wheezy)
openSUSE 12.2
openSUSE 12.3
openSUSE 13.1
