Greetings Everyone!
I'm an Undergrad student studyin Electronics Engg. As part of my
course I've sudies 8051 and PIC microcontrollers. I find that I'm
greatly interested in Embedded Systems design. However, the flood of
info. on the net has me confused. Where should I begin? I've done (or

Hi all,
I'm looking for a few people to read and correct horrific mistakes,
side-splitting howlers, and any other errata in my upcoming book, so I
am posting here in hopes of locating a few candidates. If you are
interested, please email me some information on your background and
I'll work up...
We plan to start a new project "Network attached storage file server" and we
plan to use IBM 405 PPC processor and the embedded Linux for the project.
Just wondring who has any good or bad opinion and experiences which embedded
Linux Vendors to choose?
Thanks

I am working on a firmware upgrade/downgrade procedure for our
embedded board.
The board is running embedded linux, 64Mb ram and 4mb flash.
The software will be downloaded via service kit and should be deployed
on the board. The roll back mechanism in case of failure should be
provided. Basical...

You'll need a tcp-ip stack. You might consider using embedded Linux

Hi Lewin,
I've only ever played with IrDA and don't really know anything about

I have trained one of my remotes a few times, and even though i've

Hi,
I have to interface a WiFi card (most likely PCMCIA, probably USB too)
onto a board that also has a motor controller. The embedded motor
controller traditionally uses an 8-bit microcontroller. But some of
the users' desires now ask for network connectivity to monitor the
motor controller,...

Hi,
I am considering going to embedded linux development as this seems

Hello,
I'm working on a project of embedded Linux device.
Dhe device will need a graphics mode. The board I'll
use will probably have CS5530-based graphics adapter.
I found that it's possible to run XFree86 on it
(http://www.larwe.com/technical/geode_linux.html).
However, I'd rather stay out...

I am new to PC-104 and I am not clear on how inter-process communications

My project will involve multiple PC-104 modules with embedded Linux
performing specialized tasks such as video processing, servo motor

It seems that the main advantage of CA...

No. It makes no sense to spend time on a dead project.
Use U-Boot instead (which includes support for the S3C44B0 processor).
