Why not ? About a year ago I've built an alternative firmware for some tiny WLAN router which was based on an i386 clone SoC (IIRC made by TI). Old-fashioned x86 isnt so bad for embedded as some might think. If you don't need high data rates (and things like PCI), it's relatively easy to build a board manually ;-) cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 174 7066481 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
