I think it would be nice to dump uclibc in favor of glibc for sure... I realize space constraints were an issue in the past.. but really we are dealing with flash cards in the gigabytes now and not megabytes.. so having a few extra megs in there wont hurt things
I agree with so many small and low power consumption x86 hardware out there, and getting less costly all the time too...that supporting non-standard targets might end up being a lot of work, only to find that particular device discontinued a short time later... im not saying blackfin will be discontinued.. but it seems there are already other linux developments for blackfin? -Christopher -----Original Message----- From: Darrick Hartman [mailto:dhart...@djhsolutions.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2010 9:25 AM To: astlinux-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Astlinux-users] astlinux in blackfin On 09/07/2010 08:09 PM, Philip Prindeville wrote: > On 9/8/10 2:39 PM, Meftah Tayeb wrote: >> hi, >> doe is it pocible to run astlinux in blackfin? >> thank you >> > > It currently isn't: we're tied to runnix and x86 architecture, which is one reason we've been considering moving toward openwrt as a platform framework. We've been looking at different platforms for future AstLinux development. I know Philip and I disagree on this, but I don't see us supporting blackfin or other non x86 targets. With the number of available small x86 target devices, it's hard to justify the development effort to support alternative architectures.
