From the moment i've got it few days ago it only took 15 minutes to get it running. First, that i just could not wait longer. Second, it was just a snap to set up. I've had a spare ATX PSU (which is almost of the size of Efika, what can be seen on the second picture, that one showing them together), i'm booting from tftp fetched kernel and nfs root. Since i'm living from a kernel development serial cable wasn't a problem either ;) The only problem was an operating system: or rather not system itself (obviously linux!) but rather its distribution. I've took gentoo even if i don't like it (a lot of reasons to think about it as just another toy for killing free time for those who have too much of it rather than an operating system). But anyway, the only good (and actualy doing something, oposite to the rest, even if only for themself and not providing it to the public) team in the gentoo project is embedded branch. So i have now Efika running on a ready stage3 uclibc. Will see how it goes futher. This or that way: here are the pictures.


Hope you like it. In a next stage i'll describe fun of compilling own kernel for Efika and mine (just started, as of 23.12.2006) own init system. Till than :)
