Hi all, FYI: the Fedora Core 2 ARM port appears to run on the Linksys NSLU2 (http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?grid=35&scid=43&prid=640), an ARM-based network storage device that goes for under $100. The box is a tad bit slow, but at least you can hook a hard drive up to it. cheers, Lennert ----- Forwarded message from trb <gentoo@xxxxxxxxx> ----- To: nslu2-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx User-Agent: eGroups-EW/0.82 From: "trb" <gentoo@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2004 19:45:26 -0000 Subject: [nslu2-linux] *** KUDOS *** to Lennert for a Preliminary Fedora 2 Core on the NSLU2 !!!! Ok fellow NSLU2-linux'ers -- Please sit down Our newly-found best friend (Lennert Buytenhek)'s Fedora 2 core for the arm5b runs on my NSLU2! Here are a few commands: bash-2.05b# cat test.c #include <stdio.h> main() { printf ("Hello World!\n"); } bash-2.05b# gcc -o test test.c bash-2.05b# ls test test.c bash-2.05b# ./test Hello World! bash-2.05b# ls test test.c bash-2.05b# uname -a Linux LKG0F8CB8 2.4.22-xfs #377 Fri Jul 2 09:02:32 CST 2004 armv5b armv5b armv5b GNU/Linux bash-2.05b# objdump -a test test: file format elf32-bigarm test bash-2.05b# bash, vi, mount, gcc, are all running. I *really* wanted that native arm compiler :). I haven't tried networking and I used my busybox-rc3 to chroot into the bunzip2, untarred fs. THREE CHEERS and CONGRATS to Lennert !!! I"m sure I'll be posting more or drop by the #nslu2-linux channel at freenode.net [g2] Tommy B. ----- End forwarded message -----
