We have some projects/products using embedded Linux and engineers
make it as X-Linux. It is for our customers need embedded Linux to start
their development. X-Linux is maintained and improved since 2002. Bugs
are fixed and customers can use it as their Linux application without
embedded Linux platform setup. Because it does not provide full
documents and tool-chain, developers needs to modify it manually.
