Debian GNU/Linux support for PowerPC boards

23 April 2003 Design Automation

Systematic Designs has announced further operating system support for Concurrent Technologies' (CCT) range of high performance PowerPC VME boards with the addition of Debian GNU/Linux 3.0. Included in the list of boards supported are CCT's latest 1 GHz Motorola MPC7455 PowerPC based VME boards.

Concurrent Technologies recognises that customers have a choice of operating systems depending on their market application. Therefore, supporting Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 is meeting the explicit needs of customers requiring a well supported open-source operating system in the VME realtime single board market. Vertical markets include defence, industrial automation, medical, aerospace, scientific and telecommunications industries.

A policy of ongoing board support for an operating system enables customers to encompass rapidly changing projects that require a product family with scaled performance, long life, ease of integration and protection of their software investment, says CCT. Further information on Debian GNU/Linux can be found at www.debian.org.
