No, not really. We keep it running on 2.4 for very  low  end  systems
(like MPC8xx at 50 MHz), where each clock cycle saved is a big win.

Except from this, we use and recommend Xenomai, both on 2.4 and  2.6,
and  not  only  for  PowerPC.  The  next  version of our ELDK will be
Xenomai based, and as a founding member of the OSADL we will  try  to
come   up   with   a   Xenomai  based  solution  that  meets  OSADL's
certification requirements.

So in short: RTAI is dead, and Xenomai is the way to goo.

Oops. Sorry for being off topic here.

At the moment, we don't have any specific projects running to support
STR on any platform. If there should come such a  project,  we  would
use U-Boot as boot loader, of course.

Best regards,
