Hi group,

What are board support packages?are they similar to BIOS,since they
act like a bridge between OS and hardware?

Yes. But that is about the only similarity. A basic BSP consists of
board startup code and device drivers.

How does a BSP work.?

It differs per architecture. Usually you use the OS device driver
interface to talk to the devices, configure the system to start the BSP
processes and you compile and link the BSP with the kernel.

Someone
please clarify on this..

regards
Jayanthi
