: FreeBSD is also being made to run on a variety of smaller ARM platforms
: right now like the ARM920T. It might also be possible to get a PPC
: platform like the 405G/440G working without a whole lot of work.
The StrongArm stuff also is in decent shape. The ARM920T core needs glue for the different types of ARM processors by different OEMs. There's some work on the ep9301 in the p4 repo right now which gets at least one eval board working (see http://www.embeddedarm.com/ for the TS7200 and TS7250). Other cores are also in the pipeline.
They are nice board. But I guess my project doesn't need USB ports. Do you
think its price can be under $100 USD eg. $80USD without built-in USB ports?
