I'm using a prebuilt kernel which I "stole" from the NAND, and the rootfs from Fedora wiki. I'd like to run a native kernel though. From the TODO in the wiki I see: - Add prebuilt kernel images for a number of popular ARM boards. Is there some automatic infrastructure to do that? I mean something like: * take latest Fedora kernel release source rpm * add machine specific patches * build various rpm (per-board) * expose them in a repository If there isn't such a thing yet, is anyone interested in setting it up? I have some spare bandwidth and diskspace on my VPS, and some spare time too. I don't know much of embedded development but probably enough to find the right patches around to build a working kernel. I think that after the BeagleBoard & clones there is a new kind of Linux-ARM users which aren't really interested in embedded development, but just want a low power server/appliance/whatever without messing too much with the hardware. -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
