Running Debian GNU/Linux in out ECB_AT91 boards is easy.
Debian sid
Perhaps you want to run the latest Debian sid in the board. You just have to build a kernel (read update the kernel of the ecb_at91) that works and make a file-system using deboostrap. It might be easier for you to get one that is ready. Ask us and we will provide a file-system that works.
TODO: Put the link to the file-system image.
EABI port
Perhaps you want to run the latest EABI port.
To do it, download this image : http://scratchbox.org/~rvoipio/eabi-rootfs.tgz
Use it as your root file-system..
Build a kernel (read update the kernel of the ecb_at91) and make sure it has EABI support (Kernel Features → Use the ARM EABI to compile the kernel). You need to use a toolchain that has EABI support to compile this kernel.
Change the file /etc/inittab to be like the following one:
TR:12345:respawn:/sbin/getty 115200 ttyS0 id:2:initdefault: si::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS ~~:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin l0:0:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 0 l1:1:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 1 l2:2:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 2 l3:3:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 3 l4:4:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 4 l5:5:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 5 l6:6:wait:/etc/init.d/rc 6 z6:6:respawn:/sbin/sulogin
