Dear John Willis,
Thank you for reply inbetween your busy schedule and your valuable infos.
I hope, I will get the OE supported packages, if you got it from your backups..
;)
There is no Linux kernel/Device drivers support available for this board. That
is my worry. I guess, its little difficult to develop everything by ourselves
without any proper documents available for this board. Or I hope we need to
spend more time for this work.
The only advantage for this board is, its running by ARM9263EJ CPU. I hope we
can either start from ARM9263EJ linux support which is available for other
equivalent board.
FYI, I have the source code for Wiz Linux which is supporting the Pollux board.
Let me also try to utilize this code for this stuff.

I have OpenEmbedded support (machine config/kernel etc.) somewhere for the
Pollux and MMSP2+ SoC's (and a few systems based on them like the MagicEyes
reference boards and the GP2XWiz) but it may take me some time to find them on
backups etc. as I have not used the boards in the last year or so :-o.
You will need to get hold of a Linux kernel and U-Boot for the board, once you
have that getting Angstrom running is pretty straight forward.
In my humble view you really should start by getting Linux and the
bootloader running on the board before you worry about a rich userspace like
Angstrom. I am happy to provide a little help with this but my time is limited
at the moment so it is more likely to be pointers then actual 'doing' help.
Kind Regards,
John Willis
