<title>The Linux Distribution</title>
<para>
While this document assumes a Debian-based host system you can develop in the Yocto Linux environment using many other Linux distributions.
For Debian-based systems we recommend you use the Ubuntu Release 10.04 or later.
This document assumes you are running a reasonably current Linux-based host system.
The examples work for both Debian-based and RPM-based distributions.

<emphasis>NOTE:</emphasis> Packages vary in number and name for other Linux distributions.
For package requirements on other Linux distributions refer to the information found at <ulink url='http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro'>http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro</ulink>.
The commands here should work. We are interested, though, to learn what works for you.
You can find more information for package requirements on common Linux distributions
at <ulink url="http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro"></ulink>.
However, you should be careful when using this information as the information applies
to old Linux distributions that are known to not work with a current Poky install.
