<div dir="ltr">Hello<br>
<br>
We need to design a system, which communicates data at rates of
around 30Mbs via ethernet.<br>
We are designing the hardware from scratch.<br>
<br>
I Thought of assembling a board with a processor (which will run
linux) and a small fpga.<br>
<br>
However, I do not want to invent the wheel. don't want to port
linux to a new system. don't want to create my own reference
design.<br>
<br>
So i am looking for a reference design for the hardware. and an
open source project which will supply the linux system and
toolchain.<br>
<br>
Anybody knows of such a project which both has a hardware
reference and toolchain ?<br>

Freescale's iMX53 have a quickstart board sold for about $200 ($150
if you want it without the LCD). It has fully open source Linux, and
the schematics are available for download from the FreeScale site
(including the source files, in a format whose name I forget).<br>
<br>
Full toolchain and BSP are available, though, of course, if you
replace components, you will need to change the kernel's init code
accordingly. This is the bane of all ARM architectures, however, and
nothing specific to the iMX brand. It is considerably more powerful
than the Sheeva plug, assuming that's of interest to you.<br>
