Hello, All! Does anyone have an experince of working with eCos on XScale architecture. We now have a board supplied with IXP425 processor and we are choosing for embedded OS. I know that eCos - IS NOT embedded OS, but is designed for embedded environment. So, I wish to communicate with somebody having experience of working on this platform! With best regards, Roman Mashak. E-mail: mrv@tusur.ru

GP> Do you mean eCos as the overall environment or using eCos to create a GP> Redboot derivitive to boot something else (such as embedded linux)? We didn't make a final desicion yet... The main problem is our future product should support IPv6, and we need acquire IPv6 certification (so called "IPv6 ready logo"). Linux is very poor about this, also there is USAGI project - more powerful and stable but it also doesn't support "IPv6 ready logo". But I know, eCos team had ported BSD IPv6 stack (this is the most powerful and stable IPv6 stack nowdays)... So, eCos is tempting to our goals. But our development team has experience mainly in Linux, so I'm not sure we'll have enough time to study eCos, although it's POSIX compliant and I think it will not be so difficult to adapt for it....
