Hello Hackers,

That's my first post to this group so I would like to introduce myself
shortly: I'm a 34 year old german who has studied computer science some
years ago. Being on the job for a few years I decided to go back to
the university to get a master degree in a evening school course.

At the moment I'm starting to write my master thesis - and that's why
I'm here:

I consider to replace the original firmware of the NXT with a version
that feels more like a Linux - or, if possible a real Linux.

What do you think about that idea? Would that be possible?

I also got some more concrete questions: Is there any documentation how
the original Lego firmware can be compiled and how the binary has to be
packed for downloading to the NXT?

I've had a look at the NXTGCC and NXTMOTE projects but I wasn't able to
find the needed information.

Can you give me a hint? Any help or suggestion would be appreciated...

Best,
Thomas

(...) Thanks for trying: You need just to look at the NXTGCC project. You should probably be able to start by reading nxt.pdf at (URL) then install either the winarm or (URL) toolchains. Finally download the zip file from (URL) see if you can (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)
