at my place of employment, we are using PPC and AMD. being that i work with the PPC, i can tell you that the Linux kernel alone is about 400K on average. i believe similar is true for the AMD kernels. This is NOT RTLinux, mind you, but is most certainly embedded. hope that was helpful. Jeff S

Hi Dyd, For footprint, read size. Dave's trying to work out how small you can make a viable Linux system. Incidentally we have delivered x86 systems for the last year that can boot and run RT applications from a floppy sized image in less than 8 Megs of RAM. I think this could be reduced furth
