 DB>Does anyone know of a book that explaines how to set-up Forth on a
 DB>single board computer (or any CPU based system) from scratch?

 You might get CH Ting's  EFORTH .   Download the file  EFORTH.ZIP from
 BCFB (may also be on ECFB and GEnie).   Ting also has an execellent
 manual to go with EFORTH.

 [ You can also get EFORTH.ZIP from wsmr-simtel20.army.mil and
   wuarchive.wustl.edu (they mirror simtel20).  If you don't have
   FTP access, drop me an email message to the address below I can
   send you a UUENCODED copy by return email. --dwp]

 EFORTH is a model Forth system  that resides on your single board computer
 and communicates with your HOST PC via serial port and your favorite COMM
 software.   EFORTH has about 20 - 30  code primitives that you must code
 yourself for your SBC's CPU.  The 8086 model is included in MASM format
 in the file EFORTH.ZIP.    Because the model uses MASM format for the
 kernel it may be more readily digestible to those familiar with MASM
 and just starting out with Forth.
