I will probably start with uClibc since it's already in OE, I am not sure if my project requires uC-libc, I guess I will look at that when I get a little further. > > I do not have any uClinux experience yet, and it seems to be quite difficult > > to gather all the bits and pieces of information, so I'd appreciate comments > > and suggestions, especially if you see that I am missing something. > > > > I'd also be interested in your thoughts on what would be the best way to > > integrate it into OE. > > > > Do you add all kernels supported by uClinux distro (2.0.x, 2.4.x and 2.6.x) ? I will focus on 2.6.x, I do not have any hardware to test with the older kernels and the project I am working on also requires a 2.6.x version. > I think your idea to add uClinux support on OE is fantastic! Let's hope we succeed in doing so :) Kind regards, Jin
