Jeff,<br>
<br>
Please, don't understate or ASS-U-ME anything other than what I
stated.<br>
<br>
It is a major project for a Senior Project leading to Post Graduate
work.<br>
<br>
If you have appropriate suggestions for the topic, on how-to
approach such a project, or research resources, they will be much
appreciated.<br>
<br>
I am in research mode atm, and looking for appropriate resource
materials.<br>
<br>
I have d/l'd some materials from various unix/linux documentation
sites, but specifically was asking about these published tomes, and
others that people might be familiar with that they feel comfortable
recommending.<br>
<br>
TIA,<br>
<br>

howtos that cover recompiling. You don't need a kernel driver to
start a userland program, either. You should be looking at a book
on embedded linux. If you have custom hardware for which no
drivers exist then you might need to write a driver.<br>

The message I got was that it exceeded the allowable size limit, and was placed in queueu for moderator approval.
I didn't realize my cut-n-paste from Amazon that, unfortunately, included the graphics would cause any problems.
Sorry.
THANKS.
