One of the choices for a senior project for my BS in Computer Engineering would be to do some kernal development/modification for an embedded 486 board. In this case, the kernel would only need to support the most basic operating system features. I also need to boot the system from an eprom or flash type device rather than a disk. The board would be connected to a simple tty terminal, etc etc. My professor suggested rtlinux as a starting point and I am admittidly rather ignorant as to how much work and how much knowledge is involved in such a task. This would be a 2 man effort over a 10 week time period. Both students are proficient in C/C++, operating system basics, and x86 architecture. We also have access to the designer of the board for questions about its functionality. If anyone has documentation or other information that is useful/essential I would appreciate it if you would respond or email me privately.
