What host machine do i need?

Hi, all

I bought OMAP-L138 LCDK a few days ago from TI.

and tested my LCDK, it works fine.

Followings are my work steps.

1. VMware Palyer install on my Win7 labtop & Ubuntu 12.04 Install

2. Arago toolchain install (on VM)

downlaod from http://software-dl.ti.com/sdoemb/sdoemb_public_sw/arago_toolchain/2011_09/index_FDS.html

3. Setup MCSDK (on VM)

download from http://www.ti.com/tool/bioslinuxmcsdk

Rebuild U-Boot, Linux Kernel, extracting root file system comes with MCSDK, NFS booting: MCSDK works fine and very helpful to me.

At this point I just want to know, how to develop DSP side applications...

I'm planning to use SYS/BIOS for C6748 in OMAP-L138.

Should I have CCS on Linux host (VM) for interfacing ARM & DSP using IPC or Syslink?

I already have CCS on Win7 when used to develop TMS320F28x series.

Can I use this CCS on Win7 to develop OMAP-L138?

Please comment what host machine is the general setup for DSP side in OMAP-L138?

Thanks

Regards

Kevin
