Sorry I'm not threading this right, just subscribed to the list and don't have the old posts to reply to. Reading the web archive... Bios issues like this come up in the context of qemu sometimes: htt

Adding bootchart to busybox.
Are you just taking proposals, or are you taking expressions of interest in being sponsored to do the work? Because if nobody else has taken this one yet, I could probably pull it off. :) http://tree.

[Proposal] Upgrade an existing Hex editor to r/w Intel Hex and Motorola S19 files
Linux may not run on it, but being able to control/program cheap plastic embedded devices from a Linux host might be interesting too. (Allowing Linux to be part of an embedded manufacturing process ma

[Proposal] Bluray decoding library
Would such a library potentially be something that Linux distros install openly (instead of surreptitiously ala libdecss), and thus support playback out of the box instead of "google for a wiki page,

Does u-boot acknowledge your status as u-boot-v2? The u-boot project seems to be the dominant bootloader out there right now for non-x86 stuff. It would be nice if it could be simplified and genericiz

Ok, I'd like to propopse something I'm not likely to be able to _do_ but which SOMEBODY should. Integrate device tree support into QEMU. What I mean by that is allow qemu to take a flattened device tr

Oh dear. That does make barebox a heck of a lot more interesting. I'm sorry to hear about the end of u-boot as a Linux-kernel compatible project. It's a pity, it _was_ close to becoming a de-facto Lin

CELF Project Proposal- Refactoring Qi, lightweight bootloader
Which bits does it do? Every piece of software needs something to initialize the DRAM controller. After that, they could presumably just jump to a known location in flash that the kernel lives at, and

Project proposal: Add pcc support for linux kernel.
Constant propogation is actually required by c99. (I had to learn this stuff back when I was maintaining a tinycc fork, before the original version relaunched itself as a windows-only project.) Also,

Ok, not aiming to be a generic bootloader then. You're only trying to support hardware that has the flash equivalent of a floppy drive. Got it. Because if they didn't you wouldn't support them? Bit of

That's one of the few optimizations tinycc already did, so I tend to assume it's in everything. :) It would be nice. I'm building self-bootstrapping Linux systems for various targets so I can regressi

I started programming on a commodore 64. By modern standards, that system is so far down into "embedded" territory it's barely a computer. And yet people did development on it. http://landley.net/hist
