Would be great. :)<br>

Yes, there is ARM port as I know, I've seen squeak running on Google<br>
G1 phone, which is arm based. The plattform I'd like to use for some<br>
embedded apps (one is brushless motor control) already have its own<br>
Linux distribution, I am planning to install Squeak/Pharo on top of<br>
it in the first step, but standalone Squeak would be nicer ;). (I<br>
want to use Squeak for non-realtime tasks and for displaying,<br>
realtime tasks are performed by FPGA chip onboard .. I think it<br>
could be also interesting to use this FPGA to implement some<br>
performance critical tasks as a kind of primitive call from squeak)<br>

</div>Well, I din't really started yet with NOS, but I agree. Squeak<br>
documentation is the weak part ..<br>

</div>I suppose it should still be just one project, just the loader and<br>
VM may be different slighlty. Howewer I am interested in supporting<br>
hardware that may be uncommon in PC's or even mobile phones I think.<br>
The one of first things I need to get working is the armadeus's<br>
i.MX<->FPGA interconnection which is essential for this computer.<br>
