Here's a starting point: http://www.aa.net/~swear/pedia/embedded.html
There's some companies there that sell SBCs that run Linux for that
purpose.
Here's some other places to find help if you decide to roll your own:

Because LILO knows where it is. The rdev is only used if booting from a
bare kernel without LILO. The rdev in the kernel is where it was
compiled, which if a distribution kernel was not on your system.
If you compile your own kernel, it will have the proper rdev, and to make
a boot floopy you could simply 'cp vmlinux-2.0.31 /dev/fd0' to a
formatted, but unmounted floppy.

Subject: PPP logging frames! Why?
Date: 18 Jan 1999 01:33:03 GMT
Hello all,
I just upgraded to Netscape 4.5 and now it seems all tcp/ip frames are
being logged to my var/log/messages file! It seems as if PPPD is running
with the debug option but I'm not invoking it with that option.
The var/log/messages file is getting huge and a lot of disk thrashing
is happening.
I'm running kernel 2.0.33 in Suse 5.2 distro.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

You can turn it off by editing /etc/inittab. You can also change
permissions on the file /sbin/shutdown so that "ordinary" non-root
users can't reset. Man inittab for info on that file.
As you doubtless deduced from the above, /sbin/shutdown can reset a
worstation. You can also use "init 6" or "telinit 6".

Have you looked at Technet for a possible solution for your problems?
Have you looked anywhere? One the first two problems, I'm sure they can
be fixed. Most of my developers use Netscape. If Dr Watson generated
errors that often with it, I'd hear about it, a lot. As for the Win95
share issue, that's another one I'd get pinged on since many of my Win95
users like to create shortcuts to shares on their laptops and
workstations so they can copy docs back and forth. Let's face it, if
these problems were occuring under linux (Netscape would crash Afterstep
1.0 on my box rather often, StarOffice's install locked up the keyboard
and X every time I tried it), you'd be looking for patches or bugfixes.
However, since it occurs under NT, it's OBVIOUSLY NT's fault.
I get really annoyed at this attitude that Windows is crap while Linux
is golden. I have too many stable windows boxes to believe that. I've
had problems with linux that I never had under windows. Does that mean
the OS is at fault? No, it means I've missed something, somewhere.
Windows has it's faults, and stability is one of them. However, it all
rests on the ability of the person maintaining the system. Even Win95
can be stable. I have a Win95 laptop (P90 16megs of ram) running as a
network virus scanner. It hasn't been rebooted in two months.
You can make any os stable if you're willing to do your homework.

Hi,
I am getting the following error message when I run Real Player 5.0.1 or
5.0.3, if I am not root:
^^^^^^^^
" File compression not supported. Cannot locate the requested RealAudio
decoder.
For more information, please see Error 38 at:
http://www.realaudio.com/help/errors "
I tried the solutions suggested by Real Player Help/FAQ, but none worked.
I have a feeling that this has to do with permissions. All the rvplayer
libraries have chmod 755 with owner root and group root.
Do you guys have any suggestions? Thanks a zillion,

Could someone tell me a good program to do batch processing with
some images? I've looked around, but I don't know what would be
easy to figure out quick.
I have a bunch of compressed .tif files. Here is what I need to
do.
- rotate 90deg CCW
- convert to grayscale
- convert height to 864 keeping the same scale
- save as .jpg at 50% quality
If it also works in Solaris that would be nice too, but is not
required. I am running RH 5.2.
Thanks.

You're right, my experiences do not invalidate yours. But, my
experiences with NT are not unique at all. If they were, then we
would've counseled our client on the alternatives (they use large HP-UX
servers for the main system and NT servers and workstations for
backoffice/frontdesk systems-I've been onsite in several states and have
yet to see a single NT problem).
You're a lucky guy. If all of my machines crashed that often, I'd be
out of a job. Hell, I caught grief because one of my servers had to be
rebooted once a month for awhile.

Hi,
I sugest using licq which works pretty well for me. It has most
of the functionality the mirabilis ICQ has. However, its still
lacks chats with more than 2 people. You need a recent QT
library (1.4 or above i remember). Its available at

The strong arm has a very small power consumption and a 250 MHz

Glint is oversimplified and has been buggy, but rpm itself is a pretty

What faults do you see, and have you reported those in detail to the
program authors? Without good user feedback, the tool probably won't
be improved as quickly.

I use Slackware, SuSE, and Red Hat, and I'm afraid I don't understand
this comment. I'm hardly a newbie (first started using Linux back with
SLS 1.01, and started "seriously" using it with Slack 3.2), but I like
Red Hat 5.1 as well as (if not more than) either Slack or SuSE.
Can you explain? Or is this more senseless bitching from people who
are somehow equating "likes Red Hat" with "newbie"?
