Embedded linux executable compressor..in category Applications & Software
proposed by interzone on 18th February 2006 (accepted on 20th March 2006)
Project Summary
I am working on an executable file compressor, named ecompx,for linux embedded systems..
It is a GPL licensed project of course..
I am about to release the first beta version,
which supports actually several platforms,
x86, arm (little & big endian), sh3 (little endian)
it uses lzma, or ucl library for compression,
and gives very good compression ratio, (better than upx)
It allows to put a lot more executable on a flash or hd based embedded systems...
My old compressor, uclx (arm arch), is heavily used on zaurus architecture, for several distributions, like cacko rom...
I would like to add powerpc architecture also, to my compressor,
and mips architecture next..
I own several arm boards (zaurus, NSLU2), and jornada 680 to test sh3 architecture, but I don\'t have access to a powerpc based board...
So I would be interested to have access to a development board based on powerpc, to achieve my powerpc support...
please consider, my participation to the EFIKA Projects...
thanks..
