USB TestDrive

Belcarra’s USB TestDrive is a Linux Environment based on the Gumstix Overo hardware development system that uses TI’s OMAP 3530 SOC. The TestDrive system can be used to evaluate USB Networking protocols and implementations such as:
• Linux Gadget g-ether network and filestorage function drivers.
• Belcarra CDC-NCM, EEM, ECM and mass storage function drivers.
• Belcarra’s USBLAN class driver for Microsoft Windows.

The TestDrive kit is complete with ROOTFS, Compiled 2.6.34 kernel and script to create an SD card to boot the Overo device.
Network test tools are installed and ready to use as soon as the system boots. Gadget or Belcarra modules can be loaded and unloaded for testing with a simple shell script.
