How to port Linux to RM48L950 HDK

adrian sandstrom

Hi All,

Is there a linux variant that has been ported to this platform? If not, how would I go about porting say uCLinux for example, to this HDK.

I have never ported an operating to an embedded device and bought this HDK for this sole purpose.

Adrian,

Unfortunately, we don't have a port for uClinux.

If you check on http://www.uclinux.org, there is a port for ARM7TDMI.
This could be a starting point to create your own port.
The programers model for ARM7TDMI and CORTEXR4 is similar (Registers, Mode, Exception, Interrupt.)

Best Regards,

Jean-Marc

Hi Jean,

Would a port of uCLinux work on the USB HDK as well?

Adrian,

If the port is working on HDK board, it will work also on the USB stick.
