The first miracle can be achived with uClinux (works on MMU less CPU), but
second is impossible, as lowest linux (1.0) kernel size, I could craete is
158Kb.

I don't understand this "Look! A processor! Let's put Linux on it!"
mentality...

I've got a handful of PIC12F629s. Should we build a Beowulf cluster?

Thanks.
Can I use a Lpc2468? what do you think about it?. And what i have to do to make a image booteable of linux?
Thanks again...

At least 2 miracles, the LPC2148 does not offer an external memory bus
and a total of 40 kB SRAM would be the smallest Linux option I ever
heard of.

Hi,
I mounted the ULRICH lpc2294 UCLINUX...works fine...
I have here the memory, a pcb board and lpc2294 (i have to unsoldered of other board).

Hello,I would like to know, if someone can give a hand with my problem. I want to put a linux into ARM7 (LPC2148). I ve been looking for a few place but a cant catch a clue. I dont know what I have to do? or How?
Thanks anyway.

Linux requires an MMU to run - which the LPC2148 does not have. If there is
enough RAM you could look at running uCLinux, but I would suggest using
something smaller and simpler.

Regards,
Richard.

Hi,

You need to perform a miracle. The 2148 isn't capable of running a
full-blown Linux, it has no MMU.
