Oct 6, 2012. Group Meeting.<br /><br />We discussed about which hardware and interface we are going Nov 10 Update to contribute. And the final decision is we are gonna use Pandaboard device. I will work on the GPIO interface, and Luis will work on the I2C interface. One of our member drop the course, so, that is all for now.:
We did some research on the library and drivers, here is the google doc link for sharing the information within group member: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TJQb7bEK91TNs3f2jqkOiQU3_ro8Z7BhKEbdtaCOoxc/edit
We are going (1) Try to use get F17 running by leaving partition 1 untouched (the Beaglebone/Beagleboard device for boot files) and replace partition 2 with the GPIO interfacesF17 userspace ("rootfs"). The easiest way to do this is probably to mount an Angstrom card on a PC, erase the files on the 2nd partition, and untar a rootfs tarball onto that partition.<br /><br />
(2) If that works, try updating the kernel on partition 1 to the F17 OMAP kernel. The kernel is the 'uImage' file in the first partion. (3) If that works, then try to create a full beaglebone image from the F7 components. (Let me know if you get to this step). You can ask for help on any of these in #fedora-arm. Please keep be posted on how this goes. Based on what you find out, we can set up image creation for BeagleBone in Fedora-ARM. Getting the F17 userspace running on the BeagleBoard (step 1 above) could be used as your 0.1 release.     Below it old project plan:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#<!-- Provides more depth than the Project Description.

#Tracking mechanism (bugzilla, trac, github, ...):
#Key contacts:
<!-- Add links to any mentors or key participants in the community. -->
#Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:
<!-- Note: each contributor is expected to have unique goals. These goals may be ''related'' to other students' work, but must be ''distinct'' and ''attainable'' regardless of the state of the other students' work. For example, under the umbrella of one project title, one student may work on packaging a piece of software and another may work on documentation, or one may work on solving one bug and another on solving another bug, but two students must not work on the same bug or depend on the other students' work in order to be able to complete their own project. -->
