Hi list.

I consider myself a linux newbie still, so would like pointers to information on a project I am considering trying. My idea is a dedicated audio visual setup on an embedded device with a modified version of linux as its O/S. I have seen versions of what I am thinking but it has a MS O/S as its base and I not interested in going that way. I know that the linux O/S will have to be stripped and modified to work so will need help there but I just looking at feasibility at the moment before even starting. The basic system would be a solid-state device with external devices attached. I.E. Hard drive, cameras and some kind of interface to a sound system.

Any help with pointers to sites along these lines would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'm no expert, but Debian has been popular in this area in recent years.
