Hi, I have a hummingboard i1 board [1] which I would like to use as a Plan9 terminal. I also want to use the opportunity to learn about the plan9 kernel and read the code. The board has a FreeScale iMX6 Solo SoC which is based on ARM-Cortex A9 core. I am hoping to reuse parts of the OMAP3 port (though it is Cortex-A8) and intend to look at the boot process of the chip in more detail in the coming days.
Surprisingly I didn't see a paper on porting Plan9 to new architectures in the plan9 paper collection. Any help and pointers on how to get started with the porting effort will be highly appreciated. [1] http://www.solid-run.com/product/hummingboard-i1/ Ramakrishnan
