Embedded Linux

Embedded system development ismoving away from single-task/user applications running on specialized target platform towards a reduced general purpose OS running on PC-like hardware. This move is well represented by Linux based embedded projects and specialized minimum GNU/Linux distributions. As a sample system and a basis for development of hard-real time embedded systems MiniRTL was developed at the University of Vienna and at FSMLabs New Mexico. A system that is designed around three major tenets:

  •  
    • bootable on a 1.44MB media (currently simply a floppy)
    • hard-real time capabilities, based on FSMLabs' current RTLinux development
    • maximum compatibility to a "`standard"' desktop development system running an up-to-date kernel
