Hello, in my company we have designed a self made processor board which has nothing in common with a PC except an intel-processor. We are using this board to do high speed digital image processing. A line scan camera is able to scan via the memory controller directly into the processors memory. For now we haven't ported any OS to this board. Our programm is loaded via a bootloader through the host pc´s ISA bus. I thought about porting the Linux kernel with real time extensions to this board. My question is, if there are any sources out there, that have already done a port to non common platforms. In such a configuration only the main kernel and a few drivers (ramdisk/minixfs/network) are needed. My idea was to encapsulte the board<->pc interface behind a network interface and to use the onboard serial controller for a terminal connection. Bootloading of the linux kernel to the board is done via a specific host side interface. I would be very lucky if someone could give me some pointers, because this idea is more a personal target. I would like to convince my employer from the usefulness and industrial suitability of Linux.
