Target Configurator

Use the Target Configurator plug-in for host-target development. Regardless of the Linux distribution that you are using, you will want to add your custom applications to the Linux filesystems that you plan to deploy. Target Configurator delivers complete control over kernel configuration, kernel compilation, and the contents of any filesystems on your target hardware. With Target Configurator, you can:

  • Select from several kernel configurations tailored for performance, debugging, and application development
  • Customize kernel configurations to reduce size or optimize performance
  • Easily search kernel configuration variables, descriptions, and help text to locate related drivers and settings
  • Bookmark recent kernel configuration changes or configuration areas, making it easy to locate and experiment with complex groups of settings
  • Create different types of root filesystems, including initial RAM disks, local or NFS-mounted ext2 or ext3, and JFFS2 filesystems
  • Graphically add packages and custom applications to your target root filesystem
