To: linuxppc-embedded@lists.linuxppc.org Sender: owner-linuxppc-embedded@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: Hi all, A newbie question. Currently, I am considering using FADS 823/850/860 board for embedded system development. While I was reading the "Linux for PowerPC Embedded Systems HOWTO" as every newbie did initially, I was referred to the message written by Dan Malek on 03 Sep 1999 in this maillist. His oppinion on FADS 8xx is that "I don't recommend using any (F)ADS board with Linux/PPC." The full message can be viewed at: http://lists.linuxppc.org/listarcs/linuxppc-embedded/199909/msg00007.html It has been more than one year since this message was written. I would like to know has this situation been changed? I need good PCMCIA, ethernet and UART support, USB support is need in the second stage of development. Any comments from you guys?
