2) Linux
I'd like to build my kernel and filesystem myself. But which way to go?
Using OE, buildroot, ELDK...
Can you please provide some starting points for me?
ptxdist would be another alternative.
In the meantime, I get crosstool to compile my toolchain.
With that toolchain I get a xilinx kernel from their git-repo compiling and
booting up.

ptxdist compiles my userland, but I have some more probs:

I use the xmd from EDK to download and run the kernel.
I try to setup a rootfs via NFS but the kernel didn't get an address, maybe
there is a problem with the network-setup.
It's not clear to me how put the kernel-image and the userland to one
elf-binary that is downloadable by xmd, because to work around the above
network issue to get things started.

Best Regards,

Ingo
