I read Vijay's question differently. I think he is asking just about the cross-compiler host machine, not about what distro to use on the DVEVM itself.. Yes, you can use pretty much any mainstream linux distribution as your host platform. I have used Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop and our main build machine is Fedora Core 6. -- Jon Povey, Design Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +44(0)1280 825983 Racelogic is a limited company registered in England.
