Yes, you can use vanilla kernels on the AM1808. A few weeks ago I uploaded a configuration file for kernel 3.6-rc5 to TI's e2e forum. This configuration runs on the AM1808 experimenter's kit from LogicPD. See [1]. > -is the 1808 a 'DaVinci' or an OMAP in the ARM system type options in > 'menuconfig' of the kernel? The AM1808 is Davinci, DA850/OMAP-L138/AM18x, CONFIG_ARCH_DAVINCI_DA850. Hope that helps!
