- Paul - how hard would it be to try and fire up a Calxeda node
into Lava? We can use one of the ones assigned to me. I don't need any fancy multinode stuff that Michael Hudson-Doyle is working on - each node can be considered a separate board. I feel guilty that I put the nodes into CBuild without looking at Lava - but it was easier to do and got me going - I think correcting that is important
Support for the Calxeda nodes is being worked on (at code review stage), and as you would expect that's orthogonal to multi-node testing. It should land soonish.
One issue the above doesn't solve as far as I see it is being able to say to Lava that we can do a build on any ARMv7-A CBuild compatible board. I don't generally care whether the build happens on an Arndale, Panda, or Calxeda board - I want the result in the shortest possible time.
Good point, right now you have to explicitly ask for some device type ... but if you want the quickest response, your best bet is to submit to the faster devices. :-)
