Hi ! Can the forum give feedback on the smallest embedded hw running b.a.t.m.a.n ? do you have digikey/stores link for that ?

Hello Filipe,
posting the same question again unfortunately does not makes it any more specific...
What kind of "small" hardware do you need? small price, small form factor, small power consumption? I bet you can run batman on a old 386 CPU or anything which supports Linux. You don't even need WiFi, every Ethernet compatible network interface does the trick. So maybe the smalles device is a MIPS processor with a USB port? :)
Small WiFi routers I know are for example the old Foneras [1].
best regards, Simon

Hi !
Could it be that you repeat yourself? I think I've already read that in BANLkTinZA2TC68-dcC81RZhOV1JSPPOe3g@mail.gmail.com and BANLkTikRFbLgHckRkph4pwC4ZUP7EQW0Dw@mail.gmail.com.

batmand or batman-adv or bmx? Has the software to be preinstalled? What kind of network/physical layer must be supported?

Usually we don't get information from the companies/persons which use the software provided by open-mesh.org - only when there is a problem or somebody wants to contribute patches. But they don't provide information about the form factor of their products.
It should be no problem to run it on those SheevaPlug/GuruPlug things or you could try to use Picotux (nobody said that it should a powerful box which is capable of doing real networking stuff). Common small router have the dimensions of those fonera routers (please correct me).
To make it short: No, we cannot give any feedback on the smallest embedded device which runs batmand/batman-adv/bmx because we have no world record registration for that kind of information. But we could try to give hints about possible solutions for problems involving the size of the hardware which should run batmand/batman-adv/bmx... just give us a detailed description of your problem.
Kind regards, Sven
