Trisquel on the BeagleBone Black / BeagleWire toolchain
Fri, 04/05/2024 - 20:30
I currently have a BeagleWire + BeagleBone Black that runs Debian. So I decided to upgrade to Trisquel on the long term and found out that I can compile a bitstring for the BeagleWire on my laptop running Trisquel (Using Yosys and arachne-pnr). As an example I took the I2CSlave from https://git.raptorcs.com/git/blackbird-system-fpga/ which I modified. I wasn't able to get I2C working on the BeagleBone Black yet, I will try to do that later.
It seems that this FPGA is to small for some things that I want to do. So I will design my own board using an 8K model and maybe an RP2040. Once I do a bigger run I will apply for the FSF's Respects Your Freedom Certification.
