Dmitry Grinberg joined us to talk about running Linux on small microprocessors (physically small and/or 4-bit). Dmitry does this by emulating a MIPS processor. Boot times vary between minutes and days, depending on the processor.
Dmitry’s projects are on his website (dmitry.gr) including:
8-pin Linux (Cortex-M0+!)
Linux on an 8-bit micro?
Linux/4004
Dmitry recommended NandGame, an online game about building up a processor.
We mentioned Eric Schlaepfer of TubeTime. He was on the show on 419: Fission Chips, with EMSL’s Windell Oskay, talking about their book Open Circuits.
