Hello

Hi There,

I had a peak at eLua a little while back and thought it was really exciting and now someone has dropped a Kinetis starter board on my lap. It's a FRDM-K22F and seems to be quite the spiffy little unit.

MK22FN512VLH12 MCU - 120 MHz, 512 KB flash memory, 128 KB RAM, low-power, and crystal-less USB in 64 LQFP package

I'd love to get started with a binary if possible. Either way, let me know if there is a specific build path I should take, but there seems to be some good documentation and a specific git repo for Kinetis sources.

I'm hoping to cross build on FreeBSD 11 with clang (I can cross build FreeBSD to armv6/7) but if that's getting a little to ambitious I'll use Debian Jessie.

I'm happy to take notes and pass them along if so desired.

Cheers,

Russ

Hi,

That's great news! The easiest way to proceed is to base your port on an existing one for a similar part, and it seems that you're already doing that. And yes, taking notes will likely benefit other people trying to write a port, so by all means, go for it!

Best,
Bogdan

:-/

I was hoping someone was going to say "of course there's a binary!"

Anyway, the good news is the unit comes with a built in flasher that appears as a USB mass storage device. Drop the binary and it sucks it down and reboots the system. Neat.

Ah, if only I had any idea of what I am doing... Down the rabbit hole Alice!

:D
