OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Mini2440
-------------------------------
Long time no release...
Pengutronix offers the 2015.01.0 release of its Board Support Package for
FriendlyARM's popular Mini2440.
It provides all required components to get this embedded target up and
running, and is dedicated for beginners in the embedded world. And for
experienced users it can act as a quick start for their own development
as well.
Please note:
------------
In contrast to previous releases there will be no more TAR archives for
downloading. Instead the GIT repository is where we publish the releases now.
Start with cloning the Mini2440 Board Support Package's repository:
$ git clone
http://git-public.pengutronix.de/git-public/OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Mini2440.git
and follow the embedded
"documentation/OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Mini2440-Quickstart.pdf"
document or start with the same document at:
"http://www.pengutronix.de/oselas/bsp/pengutronix/download/OSELAS.BSP-Pengutronix-Mini2440-Quickstart.pdf";.
The intention of this release is not to provide new features, it's just to
provide a recent buildsystem instead, due to older PTXdist releases tend to
fail in more recent host systems and downloading packages from the internet if
the archives are moved or gone.
