Linux (uzix) en MSX

[Alejandro Vargas]

A alguien se le había ocurrido alguna vez que una vieja MSX pudiera
correr linux?? Bueno, hay un proyecto llamado UZIX que es un núcleo
preparado para correr en procesadores Z80. Lo que habría hecho yo en
aquellas épocas teniendo un sistema multitarea para mi MSX!!

Eso sí... 0,0091 bogomips, pero tiene hasta browser para navegar por internet.

Tendré que desenterrar la vieja MSX2 y probarlo... aunque no tengo
interfaz rs232... sólo el modem de 300 baudios... ¡qué tiempos! ¿no?

Datos de UZIX:

kernel version: 0.2.0
system speed with Z80 3.5MHz: 144 dhrystones/second;
system speed with R800 14MHz: 1096 dhrystones/second;

# UZIX is running on any MSX system (MSX2, MSX2+, TR and even emulators);
