Summary
In this chapter, we took a first look at our newly embedded developer kits. We saw several useful command-line tools that will be used throughout this book, and then we took a long tour into the bootloader, discovering several useful commands to manage some hardware and/or onboard storage devices.
In the next chapter, we will look more closely look into the kernel, its mechanisms, and its recompilation with a deep look into the C compiler usage using both its native form as well as the cross-compiler one.
