OK here's my plan for tonight. It has been a couple of weeks I wanted to
do it but didn't have time to complete the work.
I'll try to release a patch against 2.2.1-rmk2 tonight. This patch should
work on Brutus with hopefully any Angel versions. This kernel will
compile to an ELF binary so the hasle with a.out will not be.
This patch is probably the cleanest up to now (big thanks to Hugo for his
big contribution) and also the more stable I've seen yet. Some issues
that triggered segfaults with my 2.0.35 patch should be fixed in this one.
However, there won't be any Brutus console support -- only serial console.
I won't do the port for those drivers since I'm not sighted... I'll let it
to others! :-)
I plan to submit something to Russell soon so the main ARM Linux tree
could carry SA1100 suport too.
So this is to give hope to those with all sort of problems for which I
think this patch should be less painful.
