Brennen, Again I wanted to thanks you for the help you have provided thus far. After digging in to accessing pci devices in qemu I found that to virtualize PCi hardware you first need a board that supports VT-d. The Asus 885M-E motherboard only supports VT-x which allows for virtualization of 6

I am looking for a RTOS to replace the current RTOS we use. We are currently using FreeDOS, however since it is 16bit it have found it almost impossible to access a new device, PCIe mmio. While searching the web for a RTOS I found Nuttx. Does Nuttx support x86-64 processors? I thought it mig
