    I appologize if this is too far outside the bounds for this list - 
Even pointers to a better place would be appreciated.

    I need to price some work. This is not work that is going to be
done, but I need to get a range of what competitive costs would be, not
what I would charge.
    I only need rough estimates, but I need them from people with the
actual experience to do the work.

    I am basically looking for the normal cost for from scratch embedded
linux board bringup - on a new board, including bootloader, BSP, and
typical minimal driver set
    network, serial, flash, PIC, ...

It depends on how you value your time...

Is it a well supported processor that has been around for years,
or is it a completely fresh architecture? (days to years...)

The same for all other parts... you have to research the subject!

First question to ask the board developers - is it based on any evaluation
kit design? Second question - what is different?
