It should also be compatible the an +Intel Evaluation board. + +There are no decisions to be made at link time. The BSP reserves ALL +available space between the end of the bss section and the start of the +RTEMS Workspace for the heap. If you wish to add network support, then +you will not need to modify the heap size. + + +See startup/linkcmds and bsp_start.c for details. + +The clock is generated from an internal i386ex timer counter. The console +uses COMM2 -- configured as 9600 n,8,1. COMM1 is available, also +configured as 9600,n,8,1. + +In general, all modification needed to support another i386ex based +platform should be restricted to start.s. Since there is no real-time +clock on the Intel eval board, if RTclock support is required, then adding +rtclock driver support is necessary. + +Hope this helps! + |
