At work here we do a lot of work with full PC's and RTOS's. From my
investigations into the matter that's the only free(libre) option I
could find. Gnat has a vxWorks port, but I can't find a public version
of it, and it doesn't appear to be available for x86's. Additionally,
xvWorks itself if quite expensive (but your company may have a copy
laying around somewhere).

The only other free RTOS I have found is Cygnus' eCos. But there doesn't
seem to be a free Ada compiler for it, and it doesn't have an official
x86 port.

If you don't care about realtime performance, there are several embedded
Linux projects around. I don't know what their statuses are.
