I think I just made a discovery today. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

I started my first uClinux project about a year ago. We wanted to use an ARM
for some reason. I can't remember but someone thought it would be great. So
we bought an Embedded Artist LPC2468 board and started with their so called
development platform.

 

Now I see that all ARM repositories I can find for uClinux are ancient. Like
almost 10 years old or so. 

 

I was trying to get the latest busybox release to compile for my ARM uClinux
board. I was having problems and wondering how to get it to build in the
/user/busybox folder like the old one in there does. Then I stumbled across
the blackfin.uclinux.org repository and found that it's very up to date. So
I checked out the latest stuff and looked around for busybox. In the
user/busybox folder there seems to be some cool scripts that let you grab
the latest busybox stuff and convert the busybox config.in to kconfig so it
will work under uClinux.

 

What the hell is wrong with uClinux for ARM? It seems that Embedded Artists
have their heads you know where about any sort of repository for sharing
their work. Did ARM uClinux just die at some point and no one who knows how
to maintain a repository is working on it or am I just missing the site
somewhere?
