Linux in ARM926EJ-S 248Mhz

I'm also looking to get linux on one of these bad girls. For those that would be interested in joining an IRC room with some of the people that have also frequented that ubuntu forums thread, join #easypc on freenode

we've been talking about it through out the day lately although they are focused on the device from that thread, which is not what our device is... the hardware/drivers is where our problem lays i believe.. not sure, newbie myself

Hello, guys. Can anyone tell me, is there any linux distro for this netbooks?
Maybe, Familiar or Ångström can be used whith ARM926EJ-S device?

I'd like to try something with my noname netbook, but don't know, how to start..

can someone translate this page? [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
KaeilOS seems to be supporting ARM926EJ-S.

Yes the website says that KaeilOS seems to be supporting ARM926EJ-S.

This Is the Suggested desktop or server dedicated to development KaeilOS
Quad core CPU
Which Motherboard with Intel chipsets give faster I / O disk performance
at least 4GB RAM
at least 320GB HD (with big cache and high RPM)

The Crayziest requirements I ever seen...

It may be the requirements for development only or server I don't know
KaeilOS run on mobiles and support somes ARM processors,
It couldn't be the requierment for the OS

Yes, it is for devel. I'm talking about development requirements.

Ah ok sorry for this mistake!

For HaRET, we need to know what's MTYPE for ARM926EJ-S processor. Unfortunately, I didn't find any info about this.

What linux distro did you tested?

I tried Jolicloud a linux for netbook and a basic version.

2 Diff
As i see, Jolicloud is for x86 processors. We have ARM.


I hope i will have success with Ångström, or Familiar Linux, they are mostly for arm architecture.

Diff, can you put here startup.txt of you HaRET?

Hi tried with an android image for HTC with haret and since my modifications on default.txt it freeze my netbook. So i up the package but the intitrd may be not good
