Hi,
In preparation for the release of Linaro 11.06 images on 2011-06-30, a suitable candidate has been selected for testing. The release is expected to be tested heavily and provide the most stable and feature-rich images to date this cycle.
Please help our initiative by testing the official Linaro Evaluation Build (LEB):
* Android: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/android/latest/leb-panda/
* Ubuntu: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/ubuntu/leb-panda/latest/
On top of our officially supported Linaro Evaluation Builds images above, the Linaro Platform Team is proud to also provide a set of images prepared by Linaro developers and community for specific target audience. Developers and Community Builds images are provided on a best-effort basis and in the hope that they can be useful. Last reported known to be working images can be found below:
* Nano: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/nano/latest/
* ALIP: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/alip/latest/
* Developer: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/developer/latest/
A list of all hardware packs hosted by Linaro Platform can be found below:
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/hwpacks/latest/
Please support the Developers and Community Builds images efforts by testing and providing feedback for our builds.
As a side note, hwpacks that have an -lt- in their name are outputs from the Linaro Landing teams, using some of their components.
Similar to the spirit of the Ubuntu based Developers and Community images, the Linaro Android Platform Team provides a set of vanilla AOSP builds that use Linaro toolchain and the Linaro mainline kernel for development boards that have good enough mainline support to run a full AOSP user experience. Those builds are not officially supported and are provided in the hope that they might be useful.
* Android Vanilla AOSP for BeagleBoard-xM: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/android/latest/beaglexm/
* Android Vanilla AOSP for PandaBoard: http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/android/latest/panda/
