        OK, Now I agree whole heartedly with you.  There is something to be
said, however, for sticking with the spirit of Linux when using an RT Linux.
Avoiding FP in kernel code is part of that spirit.  Besides, how hard is it
to do all the initialization in an RT thread and synchronize the threads?
Not very.

        The init task should do nothing but set up the necessary data
structures and tap the init thread on the shoulder IMHO.

Regards,

Steve
