Dear All,

I am a newbie on Linux Kernel Programming. Anybody have experience
about uClinux 2.6 on ARM or Linux Kernel without MMU Please help us
some questions?

1. uClinux 2.6 on ARM platform. Saw information on website
http://opensrc.sec.samsung.com and http://www.arm.com and they said
the had finished merge uClinux into main kernel tree and now (from
2.6.14) there isn't release for linux kernel.

I understand that uClinux had merged into linux kernel successful and
now we can use uClinux for device (platform) without mmu by turnoff
CONFIG_MMU=no. Is it correct? Please tell me if I have wrong things

2. Porting uClinux 2.6 for ARM platform.
Checked information on http://www.uclinux.org and that seems uClinux
2.6 haven't good support for ARM nowadays. We would like to port
uClinux for ARM platform (has MMU but we don't use it).
- Is it possible port uClinux for platform support MMU ? Have question
YES, but they said it should disable MMU. It seems uClinux could
support MMU and it will be become unreal uClinux. Please help me if it
is uncorrect

I am appriciating your answer. Please tell me any idea if you have :)
Many thanks and regards,
