Hard disk on embedded system..

Oct 07, 2003 1 Replies

Hello,



I present myself: I come in this forum for the first time, I am a French developer and I seek information on linux embedded with an aim of installing it on automats which I hope to provide with hard disk and I think that linux has already all the elements to make it.



I do not know if it is the subject of the forum but I pause the question with the case nevertheless or somebody would have already succeeded in installing hard disks on an embedded system.



Large a thank you with all which will be able to give me tracks... Thank you and good day with all. Sébastien.


Many embedded linux systems use hard disks, just like normal linux systems use them. Other storage types, like Compact Flash and Disk-on-Chip are used in cases where Hard disks are too large, expensive, noisy, draw too much power or too easily damaged from the environment.

I don't really understand your question enough to be able to give you a better answer.

Regards
