Hello, Since my last message you know that I am coding some embedded stuff, but only partialy... I was member of a Group which coded Security- and Survaillance-Systems based on DOS (DJGPP). Unfortunatly this group is going down because to many differences. :-( Generaly I was using i386 based Singel-Chip-CPU's and I try to recode the stuff, since it use only Serial- and Paralel-Ports... where I like to use USB stuff only... Unfortunatly the DOS-Based OSes are to big and Linux (even embedded is bigger) I remember the time where I had a 386EX and coded stuff smaller then 400 kByte. So my idea is based on "memtest86", - A one binary OS, based on a striped Kernel where all neccesary stuff is included. This mean: 1) Based on i386, ARM, MIPS or amd64. (I have some singel-task APPS where I need VERY fast 64-Bit CPU's and my Athlon XP 3000+ is to slow). If you have better ideas for a very fast CPU (highspeed real-time data analyses), please let me know. 2) Storage: PATA (CF-Disk/Microdrive, 1"-2.5" HDD's, SATA (prefered use of the 3Ware chips and technology), SCSI (with chipset ???) 3) Full USB 1.0, 1,1 and 2.0 support 4) Viedeo: I have contacted Matrox to get Licences to develop my own Multi-Headed Graphic-Controllers... (speed does not mather since all apps are console based because X give to many possibilities for faults); Suported LCD's 2x32 to 8x80 and TFT's from 5" to 19". 5) Singel-Binary OS/Apps must fit into 8 MByte (NVRAM or EEPROM) and must work with less then 64 MByte (16 Mbyte prefered) of memory. Question: Does anyone know, HOW to code such Singel-Binary OS/Apps? Oh, last requirement: Must boot in less then 8 Seconds.
