Re: Linux prototype board with Firewire?

[David Kovar <dkovar () gmail com>]

Greetings,

Thank you very much to everyone on the list, I greatly appreciate the insight, particularly given that my question was 
rather vague.

A board such as the Alix2d2 - http://pcengines.ch/alix2d2.htm

plus a Mini-PCIe FireWire card looks to be a very good option, certainly good enough to prototype with.

Thanks again!
