just fyi, this discussion has been initiated on arm-netbooks. bari, who is a hardware engineer, would like to know if anyone would be interested in having the beaglebone adapted, or any other of the "open schematics" boards such as the origen, beagleboard-xm, IMX53QSB etc. into a credit-card-sized EOMA-PCMCIA-compliant format. http://www.elinux.org/Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/PCMCIA
the advantage of using the beaglebone board is that it's already pretty small, so would require a minimum amount of work to adapt, http://rhombus-tech.net/am335x/ also fyi i've opened up the preorders page on rhombus-tech, for allwinner a10 (1.5ghz Cortex A8, $7 pricing in mass-volume) CPU cards: http://rhombus-tech.net//allwinner_a10/orders/ l. p.s. apologies for the ikiwiki needing an update to its underlying openid perl module (phil hands is sorting that out, thanks phil!), so a local login (see "other" option) is best for now. if you have your own openid account (but non-google or non-yahoo) somewhere you may have some success, as long as openid 1.0 is properly supported by the server that you use (google deviate slightly from the published spec. vunderbarr...). last resort, please email me directly and i will add a preorder on your behalf, it's an ikiwiki, there's git access hurrah! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Bari Ari <[email protected]> Date: Tue, Dec 13, 2011 at 10:23 PM Subject: [Arm-netbook] FSF Endorsed ARM EOMA-PCMCIA Compliant Module To: Linux on small ARM machines <[email protected]> I was waiting for the beaglebone to start shipping to see if it is worth re-spinning it in a EOMA-PCMCIA-compliant format. http://beagleboard.org/bone It uses the TI 700MHz AM3358 ARM Cortex-A8 Microprocessor http://www.ti.com/product/am3358 XAM3358ZCE $14.05 | 1ku Which TI, ST, Freescale or other ARM soc would people prefer to have in the EOMA-PCMCIA-compliant format that would fit the FSF endorsement? -Bari _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list [email protected] http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
