What is MicroClinux and what is its main feature?

[zafir]

I want to ask a simple questions:
What is MicroClinux?
How it is related to embedded electronics?
Is it an operating system for embedded systems?
What are its advantages?
Where it is used?



Best Regards,

What is MicroClinux?

I think it is a light version of Linux operating system for embedded systems.By light I mean certain functionalities are removed from the original OS so that the modified OS fit into a embedded processor.

See this site for more details:

The major feature is it can run on processors that do not have HW MMU.
