Hello Daiane,
Thank you so much for your replies.
I think I will start with linux-imx as you suggested.
Thanks
Simone

The latest working kernel for this board is linux-next from kernel.org. It´s not even supported in FSL Community BSP as we only include stable versions (but it´s a perfectly working kernel)
The question you want to do is "What is the latest release from Freescale for imx28evk". And for this question you must go to
freescale.com:
http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MCIMX28EVKJ&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tools_Tab#
And, only to make it clear:

See the description of each kernel provider here:

I don´t know. It depends on your project.
But, if you don´t know what to use or what you need, start with the default setup, which is virtual/kernel = linux-imx (see mxs-base.inc)
