Overview
The OpenSolaris Operating System has many features well suited for embedded systems now and in the future. The kernel is fully preemptable and multithreaded, it provides real-time capabilities, and the modular architecture is highly configurable. Because of these advanced capabilities, we feel there are interesting opportunities to extend OpenSolaris to new platforms, such as the ARM architecture. Therefore, we have created this project to configure the OS/Net (ON) consolidation to meet the requirements of embedded systems and to port OpenSolaris to the ARM platform.
You can engage us in development discussions by subscribing to osarm-dev and you can find installation guide, release notes, and licensing information here in this project. If you have any questions about contributing, please refer to this page and ask on list and we would be happy to help.
