Any help and pointers on how to get > started with the porting effort will be highly appreciated. it's all about the documentation. if you can get it, boringing up a new kernel for a new architecture can go from impossible to very doable. it's still a lot of work, and it can be hard to sit down and spend a week finding that one little bit that prevents anything from working. good luck, nonetheless. more architectures is definately moar better. - erik
