A short summary about the similarities of the LS/KB/TS-Hardware: ======= PPC ======= LS1 - KB : the KB is black and lacks the front USB-Port HG - HS - KBHG: no big hardware difference. UBoot + Firmwares work on all three boxes. LS/KB - TS: big hardware difference but same arch. OpenLink and the stock Terastation firmwares use glibc 2.3.x as a base...thats why both can use the same devtools TS - TSHS: no big hardware differences expected. but this is not confirmed as there was no one who had JTAG on these boxes to test this. TS/HS - TS ProI: other case, different board. similar firmware (if AD is neglected) ====== MIPSel ===== LS2 - it is the only box based on Little Endian MIPS. Thats why no generic folder is existing for MIPSEL-boxes in the downloadsection. ======= ARM ======= ARM9 - ARM11: different CPU instruction sets, so most likely you can treat these two as different archs ARM9E: http://www.arm.com/products/CPUs/families/ARM9EFamily.html ARM11: http://www.arm.com/products/CPUs/families/ARM11Family.html === ARM9 === LS Pro - LS Live: no severe hardware difference found till now. LS Pro/LS Live - KuroboxPro: severe hardware differences regarding the design of the board. but hopefully it will have the same hardware base so we can use it as a development platform with JTAG for the LS pro + LS Live (these were the first two boxes that lack a JTAG Port) === ARM11 === There is not enough information about the TSProII and the TSLive as noone has one. We didn`t see any photos of the board..so we cannot say if these boxes are different. It is expected that they are similar.
