Linux OS Embedder Kit

DESCRIPTION

Embedded Linux 2.6 is ready to be installed on the XE–900 from a bootable CD with or without an XWindows option to your target system.

These board support packages feature a compact implementation of the GNU/Linux operating system based on the preemptible 2.6 kernel. Octagon's OS Embedder supports the full functionality of the feature–rich, high performance XE–900.

The XE–900 offers a 1 GHz high performance version, while the 733MHz version offers reduced power requirements. Both versions are available with conductive cooling options and are loaded with functionality, dual–USB, Ethernet, six serial ports, digital I/O, video (CRT/LVDS), PC/104 & PC/104 Plus expansion, all on an EPIC form factor SBC.

The combination of Linux and the XE–900 results in a high performance, total solution and greatly reduced time–to–market.
