Running a gLibc distro

Embedded Devices Linux
1

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to run a full Linux distro (i.e. with gLibc) on the Wi-9C board. We have programs that require the full gLibc functionality

Thanks,

Brad H

I don’t see why not other then the size.

i have read online(sorry i forget where) others using it on arm systems but make sure you don’t compile all the locales as they eat up a lot of space too.

here is a good summary of the differences

Plus I believe you will also have to build a new tool chain to support it.
