Re: Build embedded Linux system on ARM based board

You can use a cheap and reliable commercial solution like
KaeilOS embedded linux : http://www.kaeilos.com
as starting point just for speed up the initial steps.

Any comments on that ? Which version(s) of same are workable ?


Hello Michael,
I have evaluated some other competitors' solutions but finally I have purchased KaeilOS bronze for 299 euros, plus an AT91RM9200 based board.
I wasn't very skilled with embedded linux, and it has been a good investment.
Everything was included like three prebuilt ARM toolchains and three x86 toolchains.
I've been able to create a new toolchain from scratch using included sources too.
I used with my Portux920T board a pre-configured BSP: u-boot-1.1.4, kernel 2.6.15, and the ramdisk filesystem.

Can you share your experiences too ?
:-)
