Is anyone running EPICS on PowerPC VME boards using an OS other than VxWorks or

RTEMS? For example, using embedded Linux.

I found this presentation from the 2006 EPICS meeting:
http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/meetings/2006-06/Operating_Systems/Linux-MVME_Targets.pdf

This recommends using an Embedded Linux Development Kit from Denx (www.denx.de).

Is anyone using something like this operationally? Is there an appropriate target

defined for EPICS base? And does it have any advantage over using RTEMS?

Thanks,

Philip Taylor
