Yocto, RockPi and SBOMs: Building Modern Embedded Linux Images
Thereās also SkiffOS (https://github.com/skiffos/SkiffOS).
Itās a project that uses buildroot to create a small Linux for a specific device thatās only used to start a container.
Iāve wanted to try it sometime after getting headaches with both Buildroot and Yocto. Particular adding more libraries tends to break things.
