Post Body

Hi all,

Most courses on embedded Linux/ Device Drivers focus on Beaglebone as the target hardware. OrangePI Zero3 is a cheap/affordable SBC that is widely available.. I made a two article guide on preparing an environment to use this SBC:

https://ntn888.github.io/blog/buildroot-devicetree/

Fortunately, Buildroot support for OrangePI Zero3 is available out of the box. Still as a kernel newbie I had to fiddle on for hours to setup appropriate environment (cross-compiler/custom device tree), and I have logged it above.

This enables the reader to have a usable setup to follow LDD course such as the widely popular: https://bootlin.com/training/kernel/.

Cheers.
