Hi All,

We(IT for Change) are gathering data about all the firms which offer 
GNU/Linux software development, support and training in Bangalore.We 
want to put all this data in one place(online and maybe offline too) and 
make it available to anyone who wants to use their services.

Do you guys know of any directory of GNU/linux firms which will have 
details of these firms?

In case you do not know of any directory, can you please mail me details 
of any firms you know which do GNU/Linux development, training or support?

Thanks a lot!
Vinay.

First, looking at the data sheet of the controller it is a 16 bit
system. I am not saying Linux cannot be run on 16 bit systems but its
better to look for other rtos if needed.

Secondly, it seems to have 2 KB of onchip RAM and 24 KB on flash. Well
the comments are obvious :-)

Lastly I am pretty curious why you would need a OS on such a
controller? If it is badly needed you might have to look for really
tiny RTOSes. Another option could be have a better controller attached
to the system and run the RTOS on it (This will be the master) and you
can interface this controller to it. This way you can design several
other peripherals also. If this is not the intention then you might
want to have a look at ARM based boards or even ATMEL AVR systems.

HTH.

Thanks and Regards,
Aanjhan
