Serious overkill, I think. There are better solutions in the forms of:

	RTEMS http://www.rtems.army.mil/rtems.html
	ucr   http://www.picturel.com
	etc.

These are designed for the embedded environment and don't carry the
excess baggage you'd be flashing into EEPROM.

(Note that this is going to the OpenBIOS list now.)
