I have used a virtual machine for uClinux development with good results - though in my case it was hosted on Linux, not Windows. Provided your host has reasonable performance and memory it is probably a much more satisfactory method than either dual boot or Cygwin.

Any should work, use whichever can be configured easily to work well as a virtual guest.

Hi,

I am new in the Linux world.

I would like to start a new project with ucLinux on MCF5282 and would like some 
information from people who already used it.

1) My computer has Windows XP, therefore I need a Linux Host to be able to 
cross-compile, debug my application (ucLinux + my application).
    Which host is recommended: Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora or other?

2) Did anyone used virtual machines on XP to have the Linux host running in a 
Virtual Machine for ucLinux compiling/debugging? Is that
    recommendable or better have a dual boot computer (XP / Linux)?

I am surprised that there is no forums available for ucLinux but rather a 
mailing list is used instead.

Any hints or recommendations will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

S
