Hi,

 

I'm going to use a µClinux port for my commercial project. I'm hunting around at the moment to see whats on offer.

I've already seen the Altera/Microtronix offering (@ $2495), FLEX20K + 16MB SDRAM, 8MB FLASH and

a 10MBIT ETHERNET unit with all the development tools. But does anybody know of other kits or tools hiding out

there?

 

Does anybody know any sites where people have ported µClinux  to an Xilinx device?

 

My ideal system would have a DIMM socket on it so the user can add their own memory and an Ethernet unit

which can operate at 100% in a switched 100mbit environment. Plus of course around 50 I/O pins left over for

my piece of hardware to interface to it with.

 

The coldfire processors (www.mot.com/coldfire) have a solution in their MCF5262 (integrated Ethernet) CPU but it

doesn't handle 100mbit switched Ethernet properly (runs at 50%!) so this is my current contender with me handling

the Ethernet side in my FPGA section.

 

Thanks,

 

Paul
