Hi all,
FYI: the Fedora Core 2 ARM port appears to run on the Linksys NSLU2
(http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?grid=35&scid=43&prid=640),
an ARM-based network storage device that goes for under $100.
The box is a tad bit slow, but at least you can hook a hard drive up
to it.
cheers,
Lennert

Subject: [nslu2-linux] *** KUDOS *** to Lennert for a Preliminary Fedora 2 Core on the NSLU2 !!!!
Ok fellow NSLU2-linux'ers -- Please sit down
Our newly-found best friend (Lennert Buytenhek)'s Fedora 2 core for
the arm5b runs on my NSLU2!
Here are a few commands:
bash-2.05b# cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
printf ("Hello World!\n");
}
bash-2.05b# gcc -o test test.c
bash-2.05b# ls
test test.c
bash-2.05b# ./test
Hello World!
bash-2.05b# ls
test test.c
bash-2.05b# uname -a
Linux LKG0F8CB8 2.4.22-xfs #377 Fri Jul 2 09:02:32 CST 2004 armv5b
armv5b armv5b GNU/Linux
bash-2.05b# objdump -a test
test: file format elf32-bigarm
test
bash-2.05b#
bash, vi, mount, gcc, are all running.
I *really* wanted that native arm compiler :).
I haven't tried networking and I used my busybox-rc3 to chroot into
the bunzip2, untarred fs.
THREE CHEERS and CONGRATS to Lennert !!!
I"m sure I'll be posting more or drop by the #nslu2-linux channel at
freenode.net
