Windows CE for the Pi 2

Sat Mar 14, 2015 9:41 pm

Hello.

Since the development of Windows CE 7 for the original Pi has been abandoned due to the lack of support for the USB controller, I thought that we develop it for the Pi 2. It has a new SoC, newer architecture, and will support Windows 10. Here's the thread for the original BSP. http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewt ... 56&t=58259

And the USB controller is the same, isn't it?

I'm not sure. I haven't found a data sheet for the BCM2386 yet. But if it is, then, well.... Guess I should move to x86 then.

Yes in very basic terms only the CPU & Memory have changed on the RPi2 B


Regards RPi Windows 10 that is for IoT, just like Intel Galileo device.

Yes, except for the CPU core and memory everything on a 2B is the same as a B+, (except for an extra hardware counter on the B2, that can be used by a new USB stack to improve it's performance).

Forget about Windows CE on a PI, its a closed subject. as is this post, enough is enough, I got another complaint about thread necro-ing....
