I'd like to use picoBSD in an embedded system with very small resorces. It should be a 386 with just 1 or 2 Mb RAM. The system is a deeply embedded one, with no networking, nor graphics, sound, TCPIP, etc... All it needs would be a multitasking kernel, message queues, semaphores, pipes, memory management, I/O system, parallel port, and a couple of serial ports. I'd like to know how hard scaling down picoBSD to fit these constraints would be. Best regards. -- Roberto Nunnari -software engineer- mailto:roberto.nunnari@agie.ch AGIE - http://www.agie.com Via dei pioppi 16 tel: +41-91-8069138 6616 Losone """ Switzerland (o o) =======================oOO==(_)==OOo======================== MY OPNIONS ARE NOT NECESSARELY THOSE OF MY EMPLOYER To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
