README on Implementing Linux for the Logic PD LPD7A40X-10
=========================================================

- CPLD memory mapping

  The board designers chose to use high address lines for controlling
  access to the CPLD registers.  It turns out to be a big waste
  because we're using an MMU and must map IO space into virtual
  memory.  The result is that we have to make a mapping for every
  register.

- Serial Console

  It may be OK not to use the serial console option if the user passes
  the console device name to the kernel.  This deserves some exploration.
Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip! 2005-04-16 22:20:36 +00:00			`README on Implementing Linux for the Logic PD LPD7A40X-10`
