Breadbee: building a Linux single board computer #Linux #SBC @WillyTarreau

Breadbee is a single board computer (SBC) designed and developed by Daniel Palmer (aka ‘dgp’). The board has many unique particularities that appealed Willy Tarreau:

  • It is small, very small, about 3x3cm, barely larger than the Ethernet jack, because yes, at this size, it comes with Ethernet!
  • It is quite cheap, roughly $10 for a complete board in small quantities
  • It is entirely made out of discrete components that are human-friendly and it can be assembled at home!
  • Despite its small size, it comes with a 1 GHz Cortex A7 CPU, 64 MB RAM, 16 MB SPI NOR flash, and has plenty of I/Os available.
  • Daniel wants it to be not only blob-free, but also supported by a mainline Linux kernel

Willy goes over assembling a Breadbee in detail and some use details in the post here.
