We use our 'Malta' board for all our in-house Linux work. See: http://www.mips.com/ProductCatalog/P626341476/productView (I think that link will work for you... let me know if it's non-portable) We maintain a relatively stable 32-bit Linux port for Malta. 64-bit is still somewhat experimental; but at least you have a board with ethernet and disk ports, and PCI expansion slots. I guess you should ask your local MIPS salesperson about Malta. -- Dominic Sweetman MIPS Technologies The Fruit Farm, Ely Road, Chittering, CAMBS CB5 9PH, ENGLAND phone +44 1223 706205/fax +44 1223 706250/swbrd +44 1223 706200 http://www.mips.com
