i am planning to work on a Bluetooth project for a public navigation and information system (in malls, exhibits etc.). i have to use a standalone device called Kuro box that is running on MontaVista Linux (Kernel 2.4.17) with 266Mhz ppc processor,128 MB RAM and 80GB hdd. i am going to use it as both a Bluetooth access point and a database server.

Can someone tell me what sort of Bluetooth driver is present in this kernel and functionality that i need to code to get atleast a piconet network between it as a master and other user mobile devices as slaves. i'v looked at a lot of resources but i'm still confused about exactly where to start.

also can i code for it on my present Fedora 6 Linux box with cross-compiling tools or something, or do i need to install a Linux 2.4 kernel flavour(which i don't really want coz i'd prefer to be in 2.6 system most of the time).

i'm new to linux so plz any suggestions.
