-ADS Bitsy Single Board Computer
-===============================
-
-(It is different from Bitsy(iPAQ) of Compaq)
-
-For more details, contact Applied Data Systems or see
-http://www.applieddata.net/products.html
-
-The Linux support for this product has been provided by
-Woojung Huh <whuh@applieddata.net>
-
-Use 'make adsbitsy_config' before any 'make config'.
-This will set up defaults for ADS Bitsy support.
-
-The kernel zImage is linked to be loaded and executed at 0xc0400000.
-
-Linux can be used with the ADS BootLoader that ships with the
-newer rev boards. See their documentation on how to load Linux.
-
-Supported peripherals
-=====================
-
-- SA1100 LCD frame buffer (8/16bpp...sort of)
-- SA1111 USB Master
-- SA1100 serial port
-- pcmcia, compact flash
-- touchscreen(ucb1200)
-- console on LCD screen
-- serial ports (ttyS[0-2])
- - ttyS0 is default for serial console
-
-To do
-=====
-
-- everything else! :-)
-
-Notes
-=====
-
-- The flash on board is divided into 3 partitions.
- You should be careful to use flash on board.
- Its partition is different from GraphicsClient Plus and GraphicsMaster
-
-- 16bpp mode requires a different cable than what ships with the board.
- Contact ADS or look through the manual to wire your own. Currently,
- if you compile with 16bit mode support and switch into a lower bpp
- mode, the timing is off so the image is corrupted. This will be
- fixed soon.
-
-Any contribution can be sent to nico@fluxnic.net and will be greatly welcome!

-======
-Brutus
-======
-
-Brutus is an evaluation platform for the SA1100 manufactured by Intel.
-For more details, see:
-
-http://developer.intel.com
-
-To compile for Brutus, you must issue the following commands::
-
- make brutus_config
- make config
- [accept all the defaults]
- make zImage
-
-The resulting kernel will end up in linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage. This file
-must be loaded at 0xc0008000 in Brutus's memory and execution started at
-0xc0008000 as well with the value of registers r0 = 0 and r1 = 16 upon
-entry.
-
-But prior to execute the kernel, a ramdisk image must also be loaded in
-memory. Use memory address 0xd8000000 for this. Note that the file
-containing the (compressed) ramdisk image must not exceed 4 MB.
-
-Typically, you'll need angelboot to load the kernel.
-The following angelboot.opt file should be used::
-
- base 0xc0008000
- entry 0xc0008000
- r0 0x00000000
- r1 0x00000010
- device /dev/ttyS0
- options "9600 8N1"
- baud 115200
- otherfile ramdisk_img.gz
- otherbase 0xd8000000
-
-Then load the kernel and ramdisk with::
-
- angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage
-
-The first Brutus serial port (assumed to be linked to /dev/ttyS0 on your
-host PC) is used by angel to load the kernel and ramdisk image. The serial
-console is provided through the second Brutus serial port. To access it,
-you may use minicom configured with /dev/ttyS1, 9600 baud, 8N1, no flow
-control.
-
-Currently supported
-===================
-
- - RS232 serial ports
- - audio output
- - LCD screen
- - keyboard
-
-The actual Brutus support may not be complete without extra patches.
-If such patches exist, they should be found from
-ftp.netwinder.org/users/n/nico.
-
-A full PCMCIA support is still missing, although it's possible to hack
-some drivers in order to drive already inserted cards at boot time with
-little modifications.
-
-Any contribution is welcome.
-
-Please send patches to nico@fluxnic.net
-
-Have Fun !

-=============================================
-ADS GraphicsClient Plus Single Board Computer
-=============================================
-
-For more details, contact Applied Data Systems or see
-http://www.applieddata.net/products.html
-
-The original Linux support for this product has been provided by
-Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>. Continued development work by
-Woojung Huh <whuh@applieddata.net>
-
-It's currently possible to mount a root filesystem via NFS providing a
-complete Linux environment. Otherwise a ramdisk image may be used. The
-board supports MTD/JFFS, so you could also mount something on there.
-
-Use 'make graphicsclient_config' before any 'make config'. This will set up
-defaults for GraphicsClient Plus support.
-
-The kernel zImage is linked to be loaded and executed at 0xc0200000.
-Also the following registers should have the specified values upon entry::
-
- r0 = 0
- r1 = 29 (this is the GraphicsClient architecture number)
-
-Linux can be used with the ADS BootLoader that ships with the
-newer rev boards. See their documentation on how to load Linux.
-Angel is not available for the GraphicsClient Plus AFAIK.
-
-There is a board known as just the GraphicsClient that ADS used to
-produce but has end of lifed. This code will not work on the older
-board with the ADS bootloader, but should still work with Angel,
-as outlined below. In any case, if you're planning on deploying
-something en masse, you should probably get the newer board.
-
-If using Angel on the older boards, here is a typical angel.opt option file
-if the kernel is loaded through the Angel Debug Monitor::
-
- base 0xc0200000
- entry 0xc0200000
- r0 0x00000000
- r1 0x0000001d
- device /dev/ttyS1
- options "38400 8N1"
- baud 115200
- #otherfile ramdisk.gz
- #otherbase 0xc0800000
- exec minicom
-
-Then the kernel (and ramdisk if otherfile/otherbase lines above are
-uncommented) would be loaded with::
-
- angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage
-
-Here it is assumed that the board is connected to ttyS1 on your PC
-and that minicom is preconfigured with /dev/ttyS1, 38400 baud, 8N1, no flow
-control by default.
-
-If any other bootloader is used, ensure it accomplish the same, especially
-for r0/r1 register values before jumping into the kernel.
-

-Itsy
-====
-
-Itsy is a research project done by the Western Research Lab, and Systems
-Research Center in Palo Alto, CA. The Itsy project is one of several
-research projects at Compaq that are related to pocket computing.
-
-For more information, see:
-
- http://www.hpl.hp.com/downloads/crl/itsy/
-
-Notes on initial 2.4 Itsy support (8/27/2000) :
-
-The port was done on an Itsy version 1.5 machine with a daughtercard with
-64 Meg of DRAM and 32 Meg of Flash. The initial work includes support for
-serial console (to see what you're doing). No other devices have been
-enabled.
-
-To build, do a "make menuconfig" (or xmenuconfig) and select Itsy support.
-Disable Flash and LCD support. and then do a make zImage.
-Finally, you will need to cd to arch/arm/boot/tools and execute a make there
-to build the params-itsy program used to boot the kernel.
-
-In order to install the port of 2.4 to the itsy, You will need to set the
-configuration parameters in the monitor as follows::
-
- Arg 1:0x08340000, Arg2: 0xC0000000, Arg3:18 (0x12), Arg4:0
-
-Make sure the start-routine address is set to 0x00060000.
-
-Next, flash the params-itsy program to 0x00060000 ("p 1 0x00060000" in the
-flash menu) Flash the kernel in arch/arm/boot/zImage into 0x08340000
-("p 1 0x00340000"). Finally flash an initial ramdisk into 0xC8000000
-("p 2 0x0") We used ramdisk-2-30.gz from the 0.11 version directory on
-handhelds.org.
-
-The serial connection we established was at:
-
-8-bit data, no parity, 1 stop bit(s), 115200.00 b/s. in the monitor, in the
-params-itsy program, and in the kernel itself. This can be changed, but
-not easily. The monitor parameters are easily changed, the params program
-setup is assembly outl's, and the kernel is a configuration item specific to
-the itsy. (i.e. grep for CONFIG_SA1100_ITSY and you'll find where it is.)
-
-
-This should get you a properly booting 2.4 kernel on the itsy.
