As has been mentioned already: If you wane
do things like this Rpi is
the wrong tool because it is designed to run a full blowen OS. If you
wane start with in depth bare metal programming something like a AVR 8
bit microcontroler is much better suited. And you can programm it just
using command line tools like vi(1), make(1), avr-as(1), avr-gcc(1), ...
I'd prefere it over the smaler ARM microcontrolers for this purpose
as a AVR is as simple as a microcontroler can get today. Especially as
you can show students what you can do with just one single 14 Pin DIP
chip on a breadboard.
