Summary: Porting to AMIGA ONE?

Initial Comment:
Hello
I read that EYETECH and MERLANCIA plan to release AMIGA ONE based computers. Is it possible to port LINUX APUS to the machines?
Can APUS do the project?
T.I.A.

I would hope that it could run standard Linux/PPC
(perhaps with minor modifications). LinuxAPUS is designed
to run on PowerUP cards.  AmigaONE will access the
rest of the Amiga in a completely different way

it might work...being stuck onto an Amiga A1200
'trapdoor'. however, i think you're looking at
it the wrong way...

look at it as a new Motherboard, with PPC..this
should be able to run a standard PPC kernel (as
the BPlan should be able to). THEN you have to think
about how to access the old Legacy hardware - through
the trapdoor..which apparently appears as a single
multifunction PCI card to the AmigaONE motherboard.
