Hi
has anybody tried ubuntu or fedora as host tools?
Any other free linux cores ?

Regarding MontaVista, they have some restrictions which Linux distro to use on host:

DVEVM Getting Started Guide (Rev. C)
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/techdocsabstract.tsp?abstractName=sprue66c
Section 4.3.1

talks about

* Red Hat Enterprise Linux v3
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux v4
* SuSe v10.0 Workstation

There are some reports that other distros will work (with installation trick) as well:

http://linux.omap.com/pipermail/davinci-linux-open-source/2006-October/001477.html

Regarding git/open source toolchain (e.g. like described in [1]) *all* more or less recent distributions are fine (Fedora, Ubuntu, OpenSuse etc.)

Albert I am new in the Linux world, but I think that you can use Fedora or Ubuntu (32bit); they are free.

    Marcel,
    thank you very much for your answer. I am wondering if there are
    other distributions that can run  TI MVista and/or git, and where
    can I download them

        Hi Albert
We are using Montavista kernel; and the host is a PC running Red
        Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4. We are using WMware so we
        have Windows and Linux running together.

            Hi everybody
            I would like to ask you - which host linux installation
            (Intel machine) is recommended (or needed) to work with the
            git kernel? And also, which host for Montavista?
            Appreciate your help
