Can a Linux kernel be adapted to a custom platform?
We can adapt the Linux kernel for custom hardware platforms and write additional Linux device drivers when necessary. We have extensive experience with numerous ARM platforms, especially Marvell, NXP, Allwinner, Microchip and Texas Instruments, but are able to work on other platforms and architectures as well.
Is it possible to make an embedded Linux system?
Integrating all the software components needed for an embedded Linux system can be a time-consuming and complex task. Thanks to tools such as Buildroot and Yocto Project, we are able to create highly customized and optimized embedded Linux systems that are fully reproducible and maintainable over the long term.

The BSP Layers And Reference Images for Yocto Project Release Notes contains a list of new features and bug-fixes that are planed, and also known issues and limitations. The rest of this page is split in tabs for each release.
Are there any Linux BSPS for Toradex Colibri?
Toradex provides embedded Linux BSPs (Board Support Packages) for newer module generations such as Colibri iMX6/iMX7/T20/T30/VF50/VF61 and the whole Apalis family. Those BSPs are provided by an in-house development team working side-by-side with the hardware team. This enables us to provide a high quality Linux port.
