 o less: command not found -- mhm, I personally like this tool a lot.

 o killall: command not found -- mhmmmm.

 o Kernel is configured with SMP and comes with the I-pipe tracer. Hope,
   no one does benchmarks :). Having separate kernels would be nice on
   the long term (e.g. a debugging kernel with all stuff on).

 o The SMI work-around is off -- same as above, might be a benchmark
   killer. That makes me wonder if we shouldn't export this knob as a
   module parameter for xeno_nucleus...

 o Benchmarks: please include the cache calibrator as non-RT load.

 o No dhcpcd, thus only manual network setup. I would fire up dhcp by
   default.

 o No ssh(d), thus no remote login.

[o What about stuffing RTnet on the CD as well? Default off, the user
   may tweak the setup manually then once the system is running. We had
   such a request recently on the RTnet list.]

 o We need the Xenomai logo somewhere. :)

I would surely find more, but I better stop playing for now.

Thanks for your effort!
Jan
