Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2002-04-19 Severity: wishlist * Package name : eCos Version : 'current' - in CVS Upstream Author : Redhat * URL : http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/ * License : http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/license.html Description : eCos is a deeply embedded operating system
eCos, the embedded Configurable operating system, is an open source real-time operating system for deeply embedded applications. It meets the requirements of the embedded space that Linux cannot yet reach. Linux currently scales from a minimal size of around 500 kilobytes of kernel and 1.5MB of RAM, all before taking into consideration application and service requirements. eCos provides the basic runtime infrastructure necessary to support devices with memory footprints in the 10's to 100's of kilobytes, or with real-time requirements. eCos supports EL/IX Level I, a Linux compatibility interface, for embedded applications in devices that are too small for even stripped down versions of Linux or that require real-time capabilities. eCos provides engineers with maximum control, flexibility and understanding over all aspects of their embedded solution. eCos is highly customizable and adaptable, and can be easily configured using the eCos graphical configuration tool to meet application-specific requirements. I don't intend that Debian should run on this, but that it should be available as a .deb installed batch of source code, in order to easily use it for building eCos systems. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: powerpc Kernel: Linux ashland 2.4.18 #12 Tue Feb 26 14:20:47 CET 2002 ppc Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
