RE: [rtl] Can RTLinux run on PC104?



Bernhard,

I have purchased M-SYSTEMS Disks and wanted to know where I can get this
kernel patch and instructions.  I am preparing to embed my systems and did
not realize that I needed a special driver I thought it was taken care of in
the interface.

Thanks -
