i.MX31 and evaluation kit MCIMX31LITEKIT



Hello *,

Today morning I have gotten the next Evaluation kit from  Freescale.  It
is based on the i.MX31 and realy nice.  Most  things  are  working  from
scratch if one respect (strictly) the  instructions  HOW  to  get  Linux
running from a CF Card...  It took me nearly 3 hours (my fault)  to  get
Debian ARM (the base install) installed...

But since the Kit does not have Ethernet I am running into trouble  with
testing and adding Debian packages...

Does anyone have the Evaluation Kit?

And last not  least,  my  Freescale  Reseller  has  not  respond  to  my
question, but does someone of you know, when the i.MX37  Evaluation  Kit
will be available?  It hast a  better  LVDS  controller  (1024x768)  and
Ethernet.

Oh yes, currently I have NO Display attached to  the  i.MX31  EVKIT  but
like to buy on 8" to build a A5 HandBag-TablePC and a 14" for the Proto-
type of a Industrial TablePC.  But currently found no reseller  with  an
acceptable price.  <http://www.msc-ge.com/> want 350€ for  a  12"  which
is definitivly a little bit too expensive.  Any suggestions?

Oh, before I forget, does someone know, HOW the get the ATA-6  Interface
running?  It is NOT showing up.

And is it right, if I bootstrap Debian ARM on another  computer  to  the
2"5 rive and attach the drive to the i.MX37 that  the  integrated  Boot-
loader will find the Kernel to boot up?

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
