Do I need a custom kernel?
You need a recent kernel to get support for the baytrail SoC. Most of what you need is available in the 3.10-LTSI kernel, but 3.16 is a better choice. PCI support is much improved in later kernels. The Yocto Project 3.14 kernel has good support bia the intel-corei7-64 BSP. For more information on distros, there is this page: http://elinux.org/Minnowboard:MinnowMaxDistros However, if we don't have it up on the wiki someplace already, we should add something about a minimal kernel version. Unfortunately, without listing 10s of qualifiers, that kernel will be 3.16. -- Darren Hart Open Source Technology Center [email protected] Intel Corporation _______________________________________________ elinux-MinnowBoard mailing list [email protected] http://lists.elinux.org/mailman/listinfo/elinux-minnowboard
