I'm not a porting expert, but I think I have a few useful clues for you:

- Make sure that it isn't already ported.
- Determine how portable the various parts of RTOS code are.
- Use as much as possible a high level language like C.
- Use a popular compiler/assembler/linker toolchain.
- Get a popular reference board, a popular JTAG debugger and a popular IDE
that supports your toolchain and debugger.
- Look at standalone sample IDE projects for ARM and for architectures that
you are familiar with.
- Look at RTOS sample IDE projects for ARM and for architectures that you are
familiar with.
- Look at other ports of the RTOS.
- Look at other RTOSes ported to ARM.

BTW, which RTOS are we talking about?
