First of all, my apologies for the OT question, we seem to be straying quite a bit these days. Now for the WAY OT question:
We are running a lot of Symbol technologies scanners here in the warehouse and I noticed that they are using DRDOS for the OS, running Novell's free (old) IP stack. My thought was "I wonder if I could get an embedded Linux running on this thing"? They have 128K EPROM that holds the OS, BIOS, and terminal diagnostics, 640K of RAM and 256K of standard non-volatile memory (apperently upgradeable to 1.2M). The one caveat is that it would need a 5250 emulator as well and I have yet to find a 5250 emulator for Linux that works. Anyone have any ideas on where I could start to look? Thanks!
