Hi Len,

thanks for your reply. Yes, I know this project. The source code is now 
available in Google Code, and I checked out the SVN  repository. I studied the 
code, and try to adopt it for the Kernel 3.8.4, but this is not very easy since 
many things have changed since this port was written (and it is unmaintained 
since 2007).
I have now a Kernel that compiles for my board, but what I don't exactly know is

a) where are the interrupt vectors for the ARM7TDMI processor?
b) what shall I do with the interrupt controller, the UARTs and stuff, since 
there is now this "device tree" thing, which I don't understand completely 
(until now, at least).

Bye Tobias

It looks like someone already did uclinux for that CPU some years ago:

Maybe those patches would be helpful.
