@martijnbraam @grishka also more accessible and standardized for people who already know linux administration.

@martijnbraam @grishka traditionally BMC-fitted motherboards contain something like aspeed AST2600... which is also just a weird Cortex-A7 SoC

@mntmn @martijnbraam @grishka or, you can go with overkill and use a Mercury XU5 like we do 😁 the only question then becomes: who BMCs the BMC?

@bfiedler @martijnbraam @grishka ha! we do have a kintex-7 oshw module. but it would be overkill in terms of price

@mntmn @martijnbraam @grishka (I've heard rumors that this could be one of the only hard MicroBlaze cores in the wild. Though it could also be a smaller FPGA with hardcoded bitstream... 🤔)

@mntmn @grishka running Linux on the BMC also makes USB drive emulation a lot easier I guess :)
