Some of our customers need embedded Linux to start their development. There are too much resource about Linux and needs a lot of time to make embedded Linux. We have some projects/products using embedded Linux and our Linux programmers put it on web site. It can save money and development time for our customers about Linux application. X-Linux is maintained and improved since 2002. Bugs are fixed and customers use it as their Linux application without trouble. X-Linux does not provide full documents and friendly tools to install, but it is enough and good for most embedded Linux application.

Download and Installation
We strongly recommend using Norton GHOST to restore X-Linux. If programmers have Linux knowledge, they can try to use tar.gz to restore. Or, it will need a lot of time for junior engineers on restoring X-Linux. We release X-Linux to help developers to start their development quickly. If developers waste too much time on restoring X-Linux, please order DOM or Embeddisk (http://www.icop.com.tw/products_detail.asp?ProductID=185) from ICOP with X-Linux installed. It can save a lot of time.
We recommend user using 16 MB or above MDM/DOM
(X-Linux does not support DOC)
to install our Linux ghost image.
For more information,
refer to X-Linux developer's manual please.
