I am currently working on that. I still don't know when I will be able
to finish that, maybe next week-end. 

Currently I am able to boot an unmodified mipsel Malta kernel, with the
PIIX3 IDE controller and a PCI Ethernet card. I still have some PCI 
ressources problems, and I haven't looked at the endianess problem (the
GT64120 northbridge can swap the data on the PCI bus depending on a flag
in it's configuration area). Also the emulated floppy drive does not 
work.

Cheers,
Aurelien
