On the main web page it says:
***
KURT introduces two modes of operation - the normal mode and thereal-time
mode. In normal mode, the system acts as a generic Linux system. When the
kernel is running in real-time mode, it only executes real-time
processes. While in real-time mode, the system can no longer be used as a
generic workstation, as all of its resources are dedicated to executing
its real-time responsibilities as accurately as possible.
***
The statement "While in real-time mode, the system can no longer be used
as a generic workstation" suggests it's not as useful as rt-linux.
It also says:
***
When all of the real-time tasks finish execution, the kernel can be
switched back to the normal mode.
***
My systems using rt-linux run for 12-13 hours straight. Being able to run
"normal" linux apps while the rt system is running is a major PLUS for
rt-linux. After having the flex and power of rt-linux/linux, I would not
want to switch to a system where I gave up the "normal linux" side.
