BoF: Challenges of Low Spec Embedded Linux

links:none on file
slides:none on file

A container engine called Pantacor container engine is presented as a candidate for embedded devices including the very low end. Attendees report real devices with 8–16 MB flash and about 64 MB RAM (MIPS routers), and identify the largest pain points as userland size and tooling — especially networking middleware, bootloader limits, and DBus/systemd footprint — and propose runtime trimming, LTO and stricter package selection as practical next steps.
