End of Life for Blackfin Linux

Thread Summary

The user inquires about obtaining a dump of the old blackfin.uclinux.org documentation, as many links in SourceForge refer to it but it is no longer available. The final answer suggests that a mirror for hosting the docs is being worked on, and the user can access archived content via the Wayback Machine. The accompanying answers mention that the Blackfin BF5xx architecture is still supported by some community members, and an overview of maintained legacy support is available at section5.ch.

For the past 14 years Analog Devices has developed and maintained the ports of uCLinux, uBoot, GCC, GDB and Buildroot for the Blackfin BF5xx architecture.

We will be shortly stopping our support and maintenance of these products.

The documentation currently hosted on the blackfin.uclinux.org website will no longer be available. However the sources and binary distributions will still be available from SourceForge at the following locations:
