Committed, tested, working. Only gotcha is you only get one SDRAM. 

I recommend you get a corsair 128M or 256M, NON-REGISTERED. We've had the
least trouble with those. 

I am running with 256M right now and it works quite well. But no graphics
yet.

One other gotcha. To make things work I had to build a protected-mode
ipl.S. I am not sure of how to get the right thing to happen, so you end
up with a 1M docipl. Obviously this is not right. Here is a manual step I
had to do:

bash-2.01$ ls -l docipl 
-rw-------   1 rminnich CIC-ACL   1040896 Jun  8 11:20 docipl
cvs add Config  cpufixup.c
bash-2.01$ mv docipl adocipl
bash-2.01$ dd if=adocipl of=docipl bs=1 skip=1040384
512+0 records in
512+0 records out
bash-2.01$ ls -l docipl 
-rw-------   1 rminnich CIC-ACL       512 Jun  8 11:20 docipl

This produces a 512-byte ipl.S

Here are the total steps I used to build a linuxbios for the CUA

python ~/src/bios/freebios/util/config/NLBConfig.py asus_cua_doc.config \
                                        ~/src/bios/freebios
cd asus_cua
make clean
make
ls -l docipl 
mv docipl adocipl
dd if=adocipl of=docipl bs=1 skip=1040384
ls -l docipl 
scp docipl linuxbios.strip vmlinux.bin.gz [EMAIL PROTECTED]:acer

On that other machine I just ran the burn_mtd script. 

Have fun.
