Hi all,
I need to clarify the following points.
1. Has somone already ported Linux to TX4927 chip?
2. If not, what is the complexity of this wor?
3. If yes, then who is maintaining it. We could not get any information from
the source tree.
4. If yes, is it an open source? where can I get the source code.
Thanks in advance
Santhosh K

Oh, it was a pretty interesting port. The PCI code is
pretty awful.

We will actively maintain it.

The code should be released in the next couple of months.

Duplicated effort. We too have a 4927 port which the development
engineer who worked on it hasn't had time to push out.
