Is QNXRTP really ready for "deeply embedded" system?

Hi list,

“Deeply embedded” means a system without any third party booting or loading
codes(for example BIOS).
What you have is a CPU and some memorries: EPROM, FLASH and RAM. You have
to
“burn” all your codes into it and make it work.

Does anyone try to wrap everything and put it in such
a deeply embedded system?

Yes, QNX is used in such situtations all the time. Think of the RTP as a
scaled up version of QNX. It scales down very well. For example, it is
running along wonderfully on lots of standard embedded development platforms
(install the cross development runtimes and look in places like
/ppcbe/boot/sys and /armle/boot/sys. Also check out http://qnx.wox.org/ipaq/.
