You will use Yocto Project to build a reference embedded OS
called Poky.
<note>
The examples in this paper assume you are using a native Linux
system running a recent Ubuntu Linux distribution.
If the machine you want to use
Yocto Project on to build an image is not a native Linux
system, you can still perform these steps by using CROss
PlatformS (CROPS) and setting up a Poky container.
