No need to get panic,here i am giving some useful steps .Please try yourself,on Fedora9...
Let us know some basic features about MINI2440(ARM9) board.

Now these days suppliers are having modified mini2440 with them,having some enhance and additional features..
as per my experience mini2440 can be used with
1>wince
2>linux
3>android
so as we are familiar with Linux part so lets try Linux.
we can play with this board by developing number of application on QT..so lets 1st start with
configuration and porting.
STEPS--->
1>set cross compiler as u need arm-linux
A compiler that runs on one computer but produces object code for a different type of computer. Cross compilers are used to generate software that can run on computers with a new architecture or on special-purpose devices that cannot host their own compilers.
2>download linux-2.6.32.2.tar.gz or any other kernel you want.
3>tar xvzf linux-2.6.32.2.tar.gz
4>cd linux-2.6.32.2
5>configure cross compiler inside the kernel.
6>we need to set the clock frequency.
7>comment the unused things smdk_machine_init().
8>make menuconfig.
9>set your required specification u needed.
10>set the required partitions and its specifications.
supervivi
param
kernel
nand
11>then attach file system to the kernel.
12>make menuconfig.
13>make zimage.
14>basic configuration is over..then if any body want to add some more things like driver part or QT part..in the same way he/she can add accordingly...and thats a long procedure..try to make this one...
