Hi to all,
I'm quite new to Linux systems and I made my first experiences with my new Omap35x EVM module the last days. [:)]
Up to now, I succeeded in setting up the whole system. I came in touch with all these neat programs like x-loader, u-boot, minicom, pumpklin TFTP Server, etc.... and more or less understood the whole booting process and how the board is working in general.
Now that I got Linux working I coded my first "Hello world" program (using the arm-2008q3 toolchain) and got in running on the board. I copied the compiled file on a sd-card, mounted it on the board and started the program. So far so good. But what's actually the best way to copy files from my laptop to the board? Is there a way to get some kind of scp transfer working? Can I somehow use minicom to copy a file to my home directory on the EVM board?
What also bothers me right now is the search for a suitable and nice IDE that allows me to easily develop some projects for the EVM. Since I'm a student it should be available at affordable prices that suit my quite limited budget [:D]. I think I've heard about some small Eclipse-Plugins... That would be perfect!
That's it for the moment,
Have a nice weekend!
