rtos for 8051

I have to make an rtos for 8051.

1.what are the functions performed by bootloader during startup of the chip?
if i can execute a program on my chip stored at any location in memory then what do i mean by making a separate OS for 8051?

please help me..

regards,
M.Stephen Selvaraj

    Why do you have to?

    DO you mean that you have carefully considered the options, and an RTOS is the only way to go?

    Or have you been set an assignment, "make an rtos for 8051"?

    Or what?

    In general, applications that are suitable for implementation on an 8051 do not need an RTOS.

    Even if your application does need an RTOS, why do you need to make it?

    Desigining and implementing an RTOS is certainly not a trivial task - so, if you need to ask the question, you are probably not ready to start making you own.

    "1. what are the functions performed by bootloader"

    This has nothing specifically to do with an RTOS.
    Many systems that don't have an RTOS do use a bootloader for loading code...
    What preliminary research have you done to answer this question?
