All,

I am pleased to announce the release of board support packages for systems 
based on the Intel® Atom(tm) Processor E660
with Intel® Platform Controller Hub EG20T Development Kit at:

http://yoctoproject.org/download/board-support-package-bsp-downloads/atom-e660-hub-eg20t

This BSP, also known as "Crown Bay", ships as an open system and allows maximum 
flexibility for changing hardware
configuration and peripherals.

You can find information about this kit by downloading the PDF document from 
http://edc.intel.com/Link.aspx?id=3878.
For information on the Intel® Atom(tm) Processor E660 see 
http://edc.intel.com/Platforms/Atom-E6xx/.  For general
information about Board Support Packages, see the Board Support Package (BSP) 
Developer's Guide at:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/sites/default/files/bsp-guide_7.pdf

We are releasing two versions of the BSP tarballs. Each tarball contains the 
meta-crownbay Yocto BSP layer and bootable
images.

The BSP versions available for the Crown Bay are:

- Crown Bay - This tarball is prefixed with the string 'crownbay'. It contains 
proprietary graphics binaries and
requires you to agree to a click-through license before you can download it. It 
is available from:

https://eula-downloads.yoctoproject.org/crownbay/crownbay-laverne-4.0.1

- Crown Bay no EMGD - This tarball is prefixed with the string 
'crownbay-noemgd'. It does not contain any proprietary
information. You can download the tarball directly. The BSP uses fully open 
source generic vesa support.  As such, the
drivers are not optimized to take full advantage of the hardware as compared to 
the other BSP tarball. It is available from:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/yocto-0.9/machines/crownbay-noemgd-laverne-4.0.1.tar.bz2

For source files for the Crown Bay BSP images see:

Release Notes
-------------
The following known issues exist for this BSP.

- BUGID# 725 - During a boot operation you are prompted with the question:
Found drive at /dev/sda.  Do you want to install poky there ? [y/n] Unrelated 
text might follow this prompt during the
install.  You can still see the prompt text but you might have to locate it 
above the unrelated text.  The actions [y/n]
are still valid and you need to enter your choice.

- BUGID# 738 - The icons in the green panel at the top of the screen are 
missing.  Consequently, the functions that are
accessible exclusively through that panel, such as switching between open 
applications and the desktop, do not work.
You must close an application to get to the desktop.
