RTEMS: A beginner...

[Camilo Alejandro Arboleda]

You can get used to the api and the tool chain using POSIX BSP
This BSP allows you to run RTEMS on top of any POSIX compatible OS, 
inculding linux and windows with cygwin.

If you plan to hack the kernel of create your own drivers, bosch is a 
good idea
