I need to adapt embedded linux distribution to an unsupported hardware. Actually im working on an embedded linux distribution.
Im lost from where to start. My question is, what factors should I consider before starting the configuration.
Im guessing drivers should be first on the list but Im not sure.
Can you help me to find a starting point and list the points and what should I pay attention for?
Kind regards

If you don't know the starting point, you won't be able to carry him all alone.
Probably you need to modify the first stage bootloader, adapt u-boot, the kernel drivers, the device tree, ...
You could use something like Yocto, but again, I don't see any chance that you will solve it all at your own.
Currently my company adapts Yocto to a new developed board, with a team of 15 people.

"Technically, however, they represent different philosophies: the ARM architecture is designed to be as simple as possible, to keep energy wastage to a minimum, whereas Intel's range uses a more complex design that benefits from compatibility with the company's (much more power-hungry) desktop and laptop CPUs." Well then why can't I run Windows on a raspberry Pi? Also, what is start4.elf?
Microsoft seems to know there are issues with Windows on ARM because it won't even sell you a copy of it. The company licenses the ARM version only to OEMs to pre-install on new systems. When asked if it would open up sales so people could run Windows on the new Macs, Microsoft said it had no plans at this time.
Start4.elf is a file that raspberry pi uses to boot.
Hope this helps!

Is there a way to get the Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft without installing it? If so, how? I do wish to benefit from the current free upgrade possibility but do am not able to perform the update at the current time, because of lack of free HDD space.
As far as I know, the update tool download the data, in this case Windows 10 at first, and you may install it at a later time. Perhaps it is worth to taking a look at the Microsoft support page.
Media Creation Tool looks like it will do what you want.

What exactly does heart bleed do and how can I protect my Windows XP from heart bleed? I heard that it takes your personal info by using memory. Can I lock my memory so that it can't use it? And if so, some insight on the subject would be nice. :)
I'm going to assume you didn't intentionally install openssl on your XP machine and that you aren't using your XP machine as a server. It's likely that the only thing you really need to worry about is websites you communicate with where the possibility that your information could be stolen could result in a significantly negative outcome for you... you need to make sure those companies have patched their servers if they were affected by the issue.

Is it theoretically possible to register a new top-level domain (so I would have a page like page.mydomain)? If yes, then where is it possible and how much is it?
It seems you are looking for TLDs (Top-Level Domains). Historically, only countries and large interest groups could register TLDs, but recently ICANN, the organisation in charge internet domain names, opened bidding for corporate TLDs. You can see a current list of applications here. To apply for one yourself, I believe the entering price is somewhere around $10,000, but I'm not sure. Either way, the wait for authorisation is probably still over a year, so I wouldn't count on getting it done soon or cheap.

I need to modify the way the wireless access point handle its authentication method.
Is it possible to change the behaviour of wireless access point a little bit?
If so, by using what library? On what operating system?
This depends on various things, the first being whether your router can utilize custom firmware.
Some routers like the Linksys WRT54G (pre V4 or the GL version) use a Linux based firmware that allow you to do alot more with the routers hardware.
There are some custom distributions for these devices like DD-WRT, however OpenWRT might be the best place to start if you're comfortable with Linux.
I would start by looking if your router is listed as being supported on the above sites
Unfortuanetly there isn't one specific library that I know of that will help you here, you might have to reimplement part of the security logic in these small distros and recompile them to achieve what you want
Are you using the default firmware on your access point? If so, you may find that there are many more configuration options availible, including more authentication options on third-party (free) software such as Tomato and DD-WRT.
If you want a quick start, this may solve your problem:
