I've been searching the mailing list for some clues on what tasks they would look like and where should be the starting point. It's been quite a while since the powerpc arch started so the info is huge. The searching doesn't seem to be easy task for itself. :( Would gurus here shed some light? One thing I know of is a device tree. Assuming a device tree is provided, how much work would it be for driver porting? Thanks alot, -Shawn. --0016e6d2607a25a1af048363e88f Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi,
