Re: Let's have Linux Robots Next Year!

The current processor now has a lot of the system calls for linux (well some), there is no real advantage to having another operating system on the chip, it would consume too much space even with specially stripped down OS code.
Loading linux onto the robots would make the code even more of a mess.
*Just add functions of the things that are on linux and share them with the rest of FIRST, some other functions would not be too bad.
