Run Linux on an 8-bit Processor

A foreign hacker named Dmitry grberger tried to create an eight-bit simple computer micro-control device and run Linux on it.

He wrote an ARM Simulator: Two hours after the startup, he saw the command line prompt (init =/bin/bash). Four hours later, he saw the Ubuntu logon page. After logging on, the system is still available to some extent. after entering a command, you can see the response within one minute.

Generally, Linux does not run on systems with less than 32 bits. Therefore, grberger had to write a 32-bit Simulator for the 8-bit processor, the simulated CPU speed is only 6.5 kHz. It is the cheapest, slowest, simplest, and lowest-end Linux PC. once started, the computer is still useful, the author grberger occasionally uses it to format the SD card.

Hardware configuration of this computer device: 8-bit 24 MHz microprocessor, 16 MB Rom, kb memory, running Linux system.
