[ECOS] Support for Arcom's Vulcan board

[ECOS] Support for Arcom's Vulcan board

[R Vamshi Krishna]

Our project requires a board with atleast 4 serial ports.
While googling I found out about Arcom's IXP425 based PC/104 compatible 
board. Does eCos support this board. I don't need to use all the features 
of the board. All I want to know is that is it possible to use the board 
with eCos in any way ??


PS : I really am dumb in the knowledge of embedded boards so kindly bear 
with me.

This shows that the MERLIN board is fully supported and there must be
basic support for the VIPER since RedBoot runs.

There is no mention of the Vulcon, so it looks like you would need to
do a port.

Several of Arcom's boards have RedBoot ports (including the Vulcan) and
thus some level of eCos support.

Please contact sales@arcom.com for further technical sales questions.
