127 While this document assumes a Debian-based host system you can develop in the Yocto Linux environment using many other Linux distributions. 127 This document assumes you are running a reasonably current Linux-based host system.
128 For Debian-based systems we recommend you use the Ubuntu Release 10.04 or later. 128 The examples work for both Debian-based and RPM-based distributions.

149 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>. 164 The commands here should work. We are interested, though, to learn what works for you.
165 You can find more information for package requirements on common Linux distributions
166 at <ulink url="http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro"></ulink>.
167 However, you should be careful when using this information as the information applies
168 to old Linux distributions that are known to not work with a current Poky install.
