Are there still distro for armv5 ?


Hi,

I am currently working on a sbc6000x board (armv5) and would like to change the distro currently on it. Do you know any living distro for armv5 (which has some nice package already in it if possible) ?
I found archlinuxarm but sadly i already talked to people who tried to install it on the same target and they had no luck and i somewhere read that debian was still working on armv5 but no information about this on their site.
I know this is an only support but i would be very happy if you could help.

Thank you for the future answers !

The sbc6000x features the Atmel AT91SAM9261 microcontroller, which incorporates the ARM926EJ-S processor. This CPU supports the ARMv5TEJ instruction set, which is supported by Debian's ArmEabiPort: https://wiki.debian.org/ArmEabiPort
