Hello! I don't think you want to 'port' Linux on the board. You port the kernel on a new CPU processor/architecture. I think what you want is to make a device driver for your device (that connects via PCI). What you should do is search for an existing device driver of a similar board and take the code for that one and examine it. Then take the technical specs of the new board and see the differences between that and the old board and implement the differences in a new code that will be the new device driver. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
