I'm not against looking into integrating the sata-mv driver for orion5x as a SoC; but I'll retain the IDE approach at least for the ED Mini where NOR Flash space might be scarce and disk DMA at bootloader stage isn't a must IMO. Regarding egiga sharing between kirkwood and orion5x, I have recently submitted a set of patches to the list with a request for comments. > Regards.. > Prafulla . . Amicalement, -- Albert.
