“Unique Broadband Systems, Inc. today unveiled its development
of “RealLinux”, a real-time open-source operating system based on
Linux. Unique Broadband Systems’ CEO, Alex Dolgonos, says
“RealLinux is targeted to the global embedded hardware industry,
and is especially focused on high speed ‘industrial’ processors
such as Motorola’s PowerPC and 68030, Intel’s i960, and selected
DSPs.”

“UBS’ RealLinux offering will include documentation (how to
implement systems based on RealLinux), board support packages
(BSPs), target boards, and 24×7 technical support for companies
wanting to incorporate RealLinux into their embedded system
applications. The RealLinux software components will be
available under the GNU open-source model, and will therefore be
downloadable on the company’s web site. The first implementation
will be based on the Motorola 68030.
