I hope the tests went well and I am sorry to hear you have been ill.

Great.

A vertical integrated build set builds a package as a library so this is the
same thing. The doco is ...

https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/rsb/third-party-packages.html

The first step is to build EPICS by hand to understand the process. After this a
configuration (.cfg) file for the RSB can be created and then the package can be
added to the packages built set ...

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-source-builder/tree/rtems/config/5/rtems-packages.bset

Once we have a build set a simple example application can be added to
rtems-examples. A configure test would look for the EPICS library or libraries
and be built if present.

I suggest a BSP like the Zedboard or MicroZed because the networking works with
qemu and with qemu you do not need hardware plus qemu it has good debugging 
support.
