Hi,

which is the best linux kernel version to use as start point for a custom design based on an imx53 quickstart board?

The article Linux Kernel is a good information source, and http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git

seems to be the right repository. But which branch should be used? Thanks in advance.

That is the right repository. You can also use the Kernel mainline, but I am not sure which things are not supported. In case you want this (to use the latest), install Yocto, select your machine and follow this document https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-94971

Thank you for your answer. Particularly the Freescale Community BSP Release Notes 1.4a documentation is what I was looking for.
