I thought we need $6000.00 tool to compile native code. What exact hardware and software is required to do this? Can someone please provide a bulleted list?
I´ve used the code provided here in this post, and even code from the Atmel website for the at91sam7x-ek (where this code comes from), and free software, I see some ppl using Eclipse for IDE, I prefer Netbeans, this don´t rly cares, the compiler I´ve used Yagarto, Illishar used CodeSourcery Lite, both are free compilers. I think the damn expensive compiler are for super optimized compiling, but I´m a noob on all this... take Stefan comment as a solid advise ^^
You need the expensive tool if you want to fit netduino plus firmware onto the netduino plus, which you asked about. You don't need it for the "regular" netduino, which he uses. Illishar already detailed the software you need, hardware, is, well ...

Yeah, pretty much, the only thing I think may need a bit of clarification is on the "reset" process... you don´t need any special hardware, when u put 3.3v on the reset pad, and restart the netduino, it will boot from it´s ROM and u will be able to use the SAM-BA software to upload the native code then. You will not be able to do that before u use the reset pad.
I had another problem I think most of ppl will not have, but maybe some1 can be having that too, the Lego Mindstorms NXT uses a pretty similar CPU then the Netduino, I had some driver installed (phanton driver I belive) on my PC for it, and when I´ve used the reset, my PC recognized the Netduino as "NXT Firmware Update Mode", I had to uninstall the driver before I could use the SAM-BA.

That's what the piece of wire is for
To clarify my previous post - you don't need a special compiler to put any native code on the netduino plus - if you program it "from scratch", you'll have plenty of room. But if you want to modify the netduino plus firmware, you run into space issues unless you use a compiler that is very good at optimizing for space.
