Hardware platform for embedded linux

May 11, 2006 6 Replies

Hi



I am looking to create a small linux based device with the following functionality:


  1. Must run apache (or other PHP compatible) webserver
  2. Must have ethernet connectivity
  3. Must be fanless
  4. Must be able to run off solid state disk (eg CF card)
  5. Ideally should run 2.6 kernel
  6. Should have a good BSP for development
  7. Ideally should have its own enclosure
  8. Ideally should be x86 architecture

I have identified a possible candidate as the Hacom Phoenix

. Are there any other options that I should be looking at? UK based suppliers are preferrable.



Many thanks

That's a pretty good little device; another engineering group in my building has designed it into a mid-volume application. I don't think it's actually made by Hacom, though - I think it's an OEMed product.

Are you looking for just a SBC or a complete boxed system with power supply?

None of this stuff is made in the UK, so you're probably going to find cheaper prices in the US (due to distribution volumes here) - even taking shipping costs into consideration.

Thanks for a speedy and helpful response. I am looking for a complete boxed system with power supply.

From Australia (I gues they can post their product in a day or two to UK)

Why Linux?

Read-only or read-write?

Why x86?
