Of course, the version that we are using these days is Ubuntu, which is *not* commercial... that's why we are using it (besides which, it is actively supported and updated).

So, what happens if I download the EDK and just install it on Ubuntu (assuming, of course, that it even installs)??  Do they have some mechanism built in to keep us from using free software platforms? 

Judging from Michal's messages, I *think* the only output that I need from the EDK is kconfig.auto, and I'll need to figure out where to put it for Petalogix to find it.  Is this correct?

I really wish I would learn to research before I write!!  This has already been discussed in this list, I'm reading through those messages now. 

Please disregard the preceding hasty posting.
