Kernel Development

Sun Dec 16, 2012 3:42 am

Hello,

I just received a Raspberry Pi as a gift. The Pi seems like a good jumping board for some recreational ARM kernel development. I was wondering if anyone had attempted to code their own kernel in C/C++, or any other language, for use on the Pi.

I don't expect a newer, better version of UNIX , just something unique, homegrown, and most likely barely functional. If there is any attempt, or work in progress, It would be a nice starting place, and most definitely quite informative.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

Search the forum for 'bare metal' - quite a bit of stuff there.

I've been saying "Mucho" to my Spanish friend a lot more lately. It means a lot to him.
