[Arm-netbook] Development environment for the A20 card

[David Boddie]

Sorry if this has come up before and I missed it.

Is there a recommended software development environment for the A20 card that
people can use to experiment with in place of the real thing? I'm thinking of
something as basic as a set of configuration options for qemu.

I know the Cubieboard or Cubietruck has been mentioned before in the context
of whether software will be portable to the card. I just wondered if there's
any more concrete information about using virtual environments for those
systems in the context of the A20 card.

qemu-arm works well, and there is also pbuild for command-line. the
parabola setup actually recommends using pbuild to finish off the
bootstrap installation, i completed that using debian not parabola.

so yeah it's really straightforward. in the past i've also run linux
kernels under qemu-arm, i can't exactly remember how, it was a while
ago. i vaguely recall some sort of memory limit at the time.
