Embedded LINUX

when you say embedded do you mean eCos embedded (for microprocessors) or do you mean small distribution?

I have used busybox and tinylogin quite a bit. what sort of things do you want to know?
 
i used peewee a lot when i was creating the thin-client box on the 16 meg flash card. at least to begin with. in the end i built my own distribution (4.7meg in the end which ran on 16meg ram).

problem with peewee (my problem that was due to only having 16meg of ram), as i have mentioned before it is based on using ramdisk.

is a useful place to look at embedded linux devices. they supprt x86, ppc, strongarm, xscale, mips, sh and arm plus other ucpus.

http://embedded.centurysoftware.com has very good bits too.

Another idea is to look at current projects such as tuxscreen http://tuxscreen.net

http://www.handhelds.org is good for general info on smaller binary substitutions.

trolltech do Qt embedded but I prefer Kdrive X server on the linux framebuffer with a small window manager on top.

hp.com development team (was compaq) has many websites showing linux devices.

http://www.uclinux.org shows what can be put on a simm size package. very cute indeed.

I also recommend the newsgroup comp.os.linux.embedded as a great source of info on ppc evaluation boards

Hope this helps.
