A default linux kernel config doesn't quite work because it hangs probing for a non-existant VGA card. Disable the VGA console driver and it's fine. It emulates most of an Arm Integrator/CP board with an arm1026E cpu. Available peripherals are two UARTs, and a NIC. More than enough to boot linux :-) > You don't need device emulation to do userland stuf... No, but it's a diskless board. You either run everything off an initrd, or you need network. Paul
