Your title is incorrect since it appears that Unison is an "embedded-Linux compatible RTOS". My undestanding is that it supports the same API as Linux, but it is not Linux (or derived from Linux), so calling it an "Embedded Linux RTOS" is wrong.

Good catch, oet. In my zeal to reduce the title, I made that mistake. I'm changing it now.

Hi everybody. I know this place is not the best for my question, so I'm sorry. I've just finished my studies about Telecommunication Engineer and I would like me introduce in Real-time Embedded Linux technologies. Could you recommend me any online course, web, book or similar? Thanks you.
