Preamble: 

Embedded Linux refers to the usage of a Linux-based operating system in an embedded computer system such as mobile phones, personal digital assistants, media players and other consumer electronics devices.

Porting is the process of adapting software so that an executable program can be created for a computing environment that is different from the one for which it was originally designed.
