Before I go through the excruciating process of investigating all the hardware for which free eCos includes board support packages for, I thought I'd just ask for advice. My hardware requirements are: Roughly the horsepower of a 200MHz ARM At least 4MB RAM on a 32-bit bus, preferably single SDRAM chip Don't want NOR flash on board (boot from internal or SPI flash) 100mb/s Ethernet interface Full speed USB slave interface SD card interface If the support is for some off-the-shelf eval board, I'll basically use it as the basis for my own hardware design, so the BSP should work pretty much as-is. If I had the money to buy a package from eCosCentric, I'd just go for the AT91SAM9260, but I can't justify it for a hobby project. Do any of the stock packages included in the distribution come close to the above features? -- Ciao, Paul D.
