“Hard on the heels of Linus Torvalds’ release of the Linux
2.4 kernel, Lineo has announced the availability of the uClinux 2.4
kernel.“
“An open source project funded and maintained by Lineo, uClinux
is designed to run on processors without memory management hardware
and with a typical kernel footprint of only 512k bytes or less. The
newest kernel gives users access to numerous new features of the
Linux 2.4 kernel, some of which include: USB support, IrDA
(infrared data transmission) and QoS (quality of service) support
which combine to increase the strength of the networking
capabilities.”
