uCLinux for Coldfire or ARM

I am interested in using ucLinux with either a Motorola MCF5282 or an Atmel AT91M9200, to port a PC-based prototype into a network applicance form factor. Where could I start to quickly (and economically) get an evaluation system running? Thanks.

? I'm not sure exactly what you were asking. For help on where to get eval hardware or building an image for your hardware?

Hello,

Or the excellent distribution available at

which not only contains a kernel and all the user space goodies you might want, but a simple configuration system to help you get it all built. Rgds, John...

Thanks. I want to get an evaluation/development system running as quickly as possible, then modify it into an as near-as-possible functional prototype.

This is a simple application, but I really need a network stack and a filesystem (for both CDROM drive and FLASH storage), which makes uCLinux attractive, but I've also thought through RTEMS and uC/OS-II, adding cut-down ISO 9660 and ATAPI code. For the prototype I dont have to have a CDROM drive, but it would be nice. From info from here and comp.arch.embedded, I've looked at the Cogent CB337, the Atmel AT91RM9200-DK, and the Netburner NNDK-MOD5282-KIT. Any additional wisdom would be greatly appreciated!
