Well, I am running Linux on a board very similar to the ebsa-285. Here
is what hardware I have:
-ebsa-285 like board, with 32MB RAM, DEC 21143 ethernet
-Solaris 2.6 machine to boot off and use as a cross-compiler.
Basically, get the ebsa-285, and then boot it and run it disklessly off
of another machine. You can build a cross-compiler from this machine
also to use a development machine until the ebsa is up and running. As
far as firmware for hte ebsa goes, I believe Russell has some publically
available on the armlinux ftp site (ftp.arm.linux.org.uk). Check under
/pub/armlinux for the firmware, I can't recall where it is off hand.
Hope this helps a little!
