Hi Anna,
I can confirm that it is possible. The Scorpion processor is fully ARM v7 compliant, and as you said the instruction set is compatible with the Cortex-A8. Of course you will have to write the BSP (in kern/arm/bsp) - I suggest using the realview directory as a template, and modify the files as needed. If you change the Kconfig file, then you can get Snapdragon to show up as a new target. # PF: Snapdragon # PFDESCR: 7x30, 7x27, etc # PFCAN: CAN_ARM_CPU_CORTEX_A8 # PFDEPENDS: ARM

I was wondering if anyone can confirm that Fiasco will run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset?

It is based on ARM v7 and similar to the Cortex-8.
On the Fiasco build (make config) it only shows ARM CPUs. Thanks, Anna
