Linux kernel source tree
This 2006 era Modular Development System (MDS) has, at its core
component, a full length card with a PCI-64 edge. No case. Serial
and network connectors were on card, so it could optionally be fitted
with plastic stand-offs and run stand-alone off a power brick.
Like all the MDS systems, it was meant as a vehicle to get the CPU
out early to hardware OEMs so software and board development could
take place in parallel.
To that end, the BGA CPU was held in place with a mechanical spring
loaded pressure assembly (vs. solder) so that early rev silicon could
be replaced in the field. Not for COTS deployment!
These were made in limited numbers and availability preference was
given to partners who were planning to make their own boards, like
our WR SBC8349 [since retired in v4.18 (2017, commit

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
