Looks like the big one can do 2x GigE and some home automation stuff. Sounds like good fun for Plan 9.

thank you!

the two guruplugs i had ordered arrived today. =A0i was disappoint to
find that i'll need to order the JTAG board before i can do anything. i didn't see this requirement when i ordered them over a month ago.
did anyone else miss this?

The kw port now supports the Guruplug Server Plus, including both
Ethernet interfaces, and probably the other Guruplugs. =A0booting(8) now has the necessary instructions to get started. =A0They are more diverse
than one might like because every version of u-boot we get for a new
board seems to have had the dhcp, bootp and tftp commands tinkered
with to behave slightly differently. =A0We have two Guruplugs and one
has been stable but the other is prone to random resets (and runs much
warmer than the Sheevaplugs). =A0I'd be interested in hearing from
anyone else who sees random resets.

I've imported the flash memory support from native Inferno, other than<= br> the flash translation layer, which was developed for nor flash and is
suspect with nand flash. =A0flash(3) describes the interface. =A0It seems to work on the Kirkwood boards, but I haven't exercised it
extensively. =A0It does implement software ECC. =A0/dev/flash looks like it always returns zero bytes on the igepv2 board, but lack of
documentation makes it a little hard to tell what to expect.
