I'm not too sure about the kernel sources: "is provided by Gandi and cannot be modified" My experiences with embedded *nix is that the kernel sources are tinkered with, almost constantly to infinity...... You'd be wise to post to the gentoo-embedded group, where those learking in the shadows (memory crevaces) have lots of experiences with a multitude of embedded ventures. Most embedded ventures end up on the waste heap; they made critical decision that leave the effort..........borked. I'd research into the coding+user community, as being naked and alone on an embedded vetnure, does give rise to abandonment. Another consideration is the processor architecture(s) that the codebase runs on. Most embedded and high end processor efforts are looking at LOW POWER architectures, as the thrust of all future efforts. This means on ARM or ARM+x86 or such. That said, the project does look attractive. caveat emptor. hth, James
