Hi,
I have been programming embedded systems without any OS for quite a number of years now. (From 8bit - up to 32-bit ). I am now looking at doing my first Embedded Linux based project. I have bought a UNC20 development system (Net+ARM with uLinux), and want to get one or more good books to get started. I have been using cygwin for the last 2 years or so, so I am quite familiar with bash etc. Initiallly I only need to get a console app going that has one or more periodic tasks, and that can talk to another system via a standard asynchronous serial port every 20 milli-seconds. Packet sizes for the comms are maximum 40 bytes, and I need to maintain a transmit jitter of less than 1ms. If I can do this with "Standard" system support, then it would be great. Any pointers gratefully received.
Regards Anton Erasmus
