Try the sa1100-linux list as a starting point. I imagine most of the 1100
hackers probably read this mailing list too but you never know.
Since the 1100 architecture is relatively "closed" in that a lot of stuff is
on chip, you should find that the Brutus port contains most of what you need
to get going. It's a very long time since I worked with the 1101 and I don't
remember enough about it to say what you'd have to do in order to get it to
perform.
As to what you actually have to *do*, the best thing is just to read the code,
look for the system-specific bits (most are concentrated in include/asm-arm/
arch-*) and figure out how to fill in the appropriate bits for your platform.
If you have devices that are currently unsupported you will need to write new
drivers for them too.
