The Gentoo embedded team would like to announce that we will be |
2 |
automatically building and releasing stages for ARM and SuperH/SH. We |
3 |
hope these stages will help out people interested in developing embedded |
4 |
linux applications. |
5 |
|
6 |
On the ARM side, we are currently releasing stages for the following CHOSTs: |
7 |
|
8 |
* arm-unknown-linux-gnu (old ABI, in progress) |
9 |
* armv4l-unknown-linux-gnu (old ABI, in progress) |
10 |
* armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi (EABI) |
11 |
* armv5tel-softfloat-linux-gnueabi (EABI) |
12 |
|
13 |
On the SuperH/SH side, we are currently releasing stages for the |
14 |
following processors: |
15 |
|
16 |
* sh4 |
17 |
* sh4a |
18 |
|
19 |
The stages are available under the /releases/arm/autobuilds directory |
20 |
for ARM and /releases/sh/autobuilds for SH at your favorite mirror. |
21 |
|
22 |
Because building stages for these architectures takes a while, we plan |
23 |
on releasing stages on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. If you would like |
24 |
to talk about Gentoo on those architectures, please join us on |
25 |
#gentoo-embedded @ irc.freenode.net. |

We would like to thank QNAP Inc.[1] and Marvell Technology Group[2] for |
28 |
providing us with support and hardware for ARM based chips. However we |
29 |
would like to expand our ARM support to the armv6 and armv7 processors. |
30 |
If you or your company can provide us with some hardware we would |
31 |
greatly appreciate it. Please contact the Gentoo ARM team if you or your |
32 |
company are able to assist us. |
33 |
|
34 |
We would like to also thank Renesas Technology Corp.[3] who has |
35 |
graciously provided us hardware and support for the SuperH platform. |
