A very efficient Linux/xwindows flavor, implementing a net centric operating environment and user friendly GUI.
Embedded Overview The flavor is intended to be a demonstration of Mungkie assiciates embedded appliance development environment, showing the sort of environment that can be created for small appliance GUI systems using less than 4Mb flash and 4Mb RAM. The embedded development environment is based around a standard source tree containing all the required utilities for a standard POSIX unix implementation with a number of XML based GUI configuration and compilation tools. Simple GUI utilities are used to configure required components and set compilation options. The flavor is targeted as a base for: - corporate users to reduce IT costs by deploying X terminals on old or low cost hardware
Or: - embedded OS for handhelds, settop boxes, or communications devices, with full support for bluetooth, wifi, internet, and MMS protocols
Or: - Hobbyist or small companies to develop specialist applications for cheap commodity hardware
Embedded Features The system is formed from a basic set of GNU/open source code optimized for size and speed. The use of linux gives developers access to thousands of applications and utilities to customise the system at zero cost. kernel 2.0.x/2.2.x/2.4.x libc-2.1/libc5/uclibc, tcp/ip network support. full protocol stack for wifi, mms busybox 0.62, tinylogin 1.0, ppp, chat, some daemons, inetd, crond. dhcp client and server. iptables e3 editor, X window system 4.1 vesa VNC client merlin character recognition rdesktop remote windows client ssh
2diskxwin also includes a number of proprietary tools created by Mungkie specifically for the embedded X window system desktop. Mungwm : a window manager Mungbrowse : a web browser Mungterm : a terminal program Mungames : a collection of 12 games Mungedit : a text editor Mungfile : embedded file manager NEW Evil bastard operator tools NEW Cheese dynamics context apropriation modeling NEW Mini Mung beans (beans of mung for all your network environment)
Requirements: The floppy system requires a minimum 386SX with 8Mb memory, VESA compliant graphics bios, a floppy disk drive, a supported network adapter.
