SnapGear Embedded Linux 3.0

The embedded Linux companies seem to be having some sort of race to see who can deploy the (still unreleased) 2.6 kernel first. LynuxWorks announced a 2.6-based beta three weeks ago. Now SnapGear has sent out a press release proclaiming the availability of SnapGear Embedded Linux 3.0, which, of course, includes a 2.6 kernel. The PR claims that the distribution is available for download now from snapgear.org, but it looks like it's not quite there as of this writing.

It's on their FTP site. The web site wasn't updated.

It looks like they don't support passive FTP connections. Active FTP is OK, but I had to do it from a non-firewalled machine.
