Hi Ricardo, Eric and others,

The end goal for the exercise is that users ( DS-5 tools users, partner FAEs, partner kernel developers etc ) should be able to pull a Freescale i.Mx5 evaluation build from http://www.linaro.org/downloads/ ( or a snowball / origen / panda eval build for that matter) , install the correct gator ppa for the platform automagically and get going with the profiling tools without having to rebuild the kernel image or the gator module.

Pawel tells me that eval builds produced by the developer platform team uses hwpacks produced from the lt kernel ( at least in the case of Freescale i.Mx ), so this should work. Shout if this is not the case.

Thanks,
Vinod
