World's slowest Linux computer, states 'Hello Wor...' (video)

ImageObviously fed up with smooth running graphics, lightning fast processing and bags and bags of accessible memory, programmer Dmitry Grinberg made the decision to return to computing fundamentals. And more. As Linux was created on the 32-bit machine with 1MB of RAM, this happens to be considered the minimum system needs to operate outdoors source OS. Dmitry, however, put this theory to check, creating a barebones set-track of just an 8-bit RISC microcontroller at its heart. Running in a somewhat sedentary 6.5KHz, with only 16KB of SRAM and 128KB of expensive storage, they are specs which make most phones seem like supercomputers. To obtain things working, Dmitry needed to write a leg emulator to ensure that the machine made an appearance as getting a 32-bit processor by having an MMU, also it appears like a 30-pin 16MB SIMM was added, plus as Sdcard to accommodate the Ubuntu image. Despite all of this, he could load Ubuntu effectively. Sure, it required four hrs, and that is after two hrs awaiting the party command prompt, however. Grinberg claims the product is still able to be used, using the command line typically reacting "inside a minute." So Dmitri, if you are reading through this around the machine, happy year! Look into the time-lapse video following the break to determine it entirely, persistence testing, action.
