There are two books that I know of, and neither completely cover the topic. They are: "Building Embedded Linux Systems", K. Yaghmour, O'Reilly, ISBN 0-596-00222-X "Embedded Linux", J. Lombardo, New Riders, ISBN 0-7357-0998-X There are several project pages, with varying levels of documentation quality. I would suggest searching Google linux for keywords like "embedded", "tiny", and "minimal". Also look at the syslinux, isolinux and such at http://syslinux.zytor.com/index.php Check out http://busybox.net/ for info on building the base system. There is a sharp learning curve in all of this, but it's fun. L J Laubenheimer
