so the substantive comments that I can see so far:
1. ROMFS->LCAR
2. ORBC->LAR2
LCAR, so magic and name match (request by Peter)
2.5 version number 31313131 to something else, I don't care, just name it.
"VeR1" (as good as any, and it doesn't look like a failed memory test)
3. consider stupid hardware design which makes most of ROM
non-memory-accessible but at the same time don't do that because it is
really slow. You all confused me now :-)
That shouldn't stop integration. With the code integrated, we can start
porting boards over to whatever-it-is-called-now (wiicn), and fix issues
as we encounter them.
And if some boards require special access to wiicn, we'll have to allow
them to redirect wiicn access through functions pointers - that's not
hard, and doesn't change the design as far as I see it, merely some
implementation bits.
4. make expansion roms compressed. Well, this is ok by me; are we
going to expand them to c0000? That works for me.
Expansion roms are not on the roadmap yet (the buildsystem doesn't even
cover them), and this is something that can be modified at build time at
will (romtool add-whatever filename [compression flag]) once we support
it. No change in wiicn design, no significance for the patch in
question, no need to debate it now.

Patrick
