Hi,

I would like some places to start to get the easiest program
programmed into
an AM29C020 EEprom to boot a single board computer.

I imagine seeing DOS or Linux booting up to say "Hello, World".

First I just want to see this thing boot to something else instead of
the WinCE that it boots to.

After that I can try to figure out how to program them myself with
some other programs. Embedded computers seem like fun!

Thanks!

Since you like the fun part, you might find the stuff you need at
mini-itx.com, and it's a great visit even if you don't, because they
cater to those who have carried embedded computing to ridiculous extremes.
