Is The Angstroem Distr. Part Of Openembedded?
« on: February 17, 2006, 11:59:15 am »
Hello,
I want to know is the Angstroem Distribution a part of OpenEmbedded?
Where could I find some information about the distribution and the reasons for build it?
regards

Hi mr_nice, nice nickname  

From the official newsletter  :

Ångström is a new user- and developerfriendly OE-based distribution for Linux-based PDAs and WebPads which is currently in planning state.

The first Ångström release will support the HP iPAQ, Sharp Zaurus, and SIEMENS SIMpad family of devices.
In a nutshell Ångström is part of OE and is aiming to be a full replacement of OpenZaurus, Familiar, OpenSimPad... that's to make a universal distribution supporting all the architecture supported by the above distributions.

The website is quite new and you will find more information on it : http://angstrom-distribution.org/

At least this is my understanding of Ã…ngström, please correct me koen or mickeyl if I am wrong  
Zaurus SL 6000L - Hitachi Microdrive 4Go
Sharp ROM with Debian PocketWorkstation XFCE | Angström

Hi mr_nice,

I asked the same question yesterday on IRC.  You might want to look through the logs for an answer.  My nick is Laibsch.  The relevant parts start at 8:29 AM.
