there is no fork

one thing to be aware of when using uClinux on the blackfin is that the MMU does not handle virtual memory allocation. In short you can\'t use a true fork(). There are versions of these functions for MMU-less processors like the blackfin (it has an MMU but not that kind) so all is well right? Pretty much but not really. uClinux still is fully threaded, and many, many wonderful apps run under uClinux. So close your eyes, take a deep breath, and accept the truth; there is no fork.
