本 NanoNote试行Debian系统

May 6

在 pyneo.org 支持者的帮助下，Ben NanoNote已经可以运行 Debian兼容的内核，并且准备了的两个不同的Debian rootfs：一个rootfs是一个很小的Debian系统而第二个也包含 “所有开发需要的包”。

Debian 系统包括超过20,000软件包，开发人员可以专注于在 [本 NanoNote] 上实现新的创意。我们希望把 Debian 作为一个[NanoNote]软件开发测试平台，让开发者在[本 NanoNote]上更快的开发自己软件（想法）的快速原型。

虽然现在还处于初期阶段，我们的最终目的是把 Debian 做为 [本 NanoNote] 的第二个 Linux 发行版。一旦稳定下来将被移植到OpenWrt – 这意味着，今后开发者不需要花费时间移植所需的LIBS，而是可以专注于在[本 NanoNote] 发挥创意，开发软件。

在pyneo.org网站可以找到如何在[本 NanoNote]上刷 Debian 系统。

[本 NanoNote] 售价99美元，国内可以在 http://alturl.com/zan3 买到。

这是样品的一些信息 Wrote By Yi:

1. We have gotten the first set of mechanical parts for Ben NanoNote [1][2].

2. We found some problems, mostly cosmetic issues. The factory is making the second set based on our fix list [3][4].

3. First 20 working samples, with the first mechanical parts, final boards (with Giantplus LCD [5], Samsung K9GAG08U0M 2GB NAND [6]), will be send to Shanghai on Wednesday from Shenzhen. They should arrive on Thursday. The 2GB NAND flash on these 20 samples are not tested at all. Among them, 2 samples will be used for CE and FCC certification test in Nanjing, 1 goes to Xiangfu in Beijing, 5 go to Steve Mosher in San Francisco, USA, 12 go to Mirko Lindner, Berlin, Germany.

4. The next 20 samples, with fixed mechanical parts, will be ready in 2 weeks. Read from and write to 2GB NAND flash on these 20 samples will be tested by the factory. But seeking for the bad blocks on NAND needs to be done by us. It would be great if someone start working on this.
