I have the same (small) board and used the following method to
implement some more (compiled) files in the system. In this way, I
compiled and use samba, phyton and php for now.

1) Enable php (samba, phyton) in the acme configuration. Chose your
normal board flash size (LX4*16).
2) Make sure the compiler made everything right. Your Message should
go till the creation of the fimage, which says in the end, that the
image is much too large. But don't care.
3) The fimage is created from the target directory
/target/acme_blabla/ . Not all directorys are saved in the fimage. You
could compare it with the directory structure on your board to find
out, which directorys are used in the final image.
4) You must find out yourself which files and directorys are necessary
for php (samba, phyton). Just copy it to an attached memory stick:
- files in /etc/.. can you copy directly to your running foxboard
- large files go to the memory stick in a separate directory
- the directory on the memory stick (which includes the binary and
perhaps some additional directories) can you mount after booting,
using the "-o bind" option:

 mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/1
 mount /mnt/1/usr /usr -o bind

The mount point (directory) must exist when you mount. Depending on
location and the php calling from scripts, you must decide, if you
want to have it in usr/bin or some other non PATH directory (/root/php
or so) If you want to have it in /usr/bin you must copy all available
files from this foxboard directory to your memory stick, else they
aren't available after the mounting. I read a little bit in the man
pages on my desktop linux. Here it is possible to bind single files to
an existing directory, but busybox does not support this method :-( .
So the "overmount" is the only possible solution. If you find a better
way, plz let me know!!!

The foxboard "boa" httpd webserver doesn't understand <?php ...> tags.
But I think it could work in combination with cgi shell-scripts.


If you find out, how to compile and integrate sqlLite, please let me
know, too :-)
