Ok, so this is the first time I've posted. I've ordered my unit and am way psyched about getting it.
So psyched, that I want to see some ARM linux right now so I can (maybe) toy around with it and maybe work on some code for the system. However, I can't quite get it to work. I was wondering if anybody has done this before.
Here's what I tried, and how its working out so far. I'm not a Linux pro or anything (primary machine is a Mac), but not a complete novice either. I've installed qemu and qemulator (qemu gui front end) on my Ubuntu partition for emulating the ARM processor. Set up a disk, and it wants an iso with the OS on it.
No problem, I figure. Pandora runs (currently) on Angstrom, so that's what I head off to find. Unfortunately, the only thing its got are weird *.jffs2 files, and qemu doesn't seem to like them. I can't open them, or convert it to iso. Bah, I decided to try downloading a stripped down Debian for ARM. No cigar. It sets up and pretends to work, but the thing shuts down as soon as it starts.
Has anybody got a basic ARM emulator set up? Can you give out basic instructions on putting it together?
Thanks
