Everything's working but the LEDs, the buttons and a little odd problem with the RAID setup. See below for details. First thing I did was plug in a serial/TTL ftdi cable to access the serial console. The instructions/pin-outs can be found on http://iomega.nas-central.org/wiki/Category:Ix2-200 but are Pin 1 VCC (3.3V) Pin 2 TxD Pin 3 GND Pin 4 RxD Pretty much you can follow directions for the Marvell kirkwood series; I also found this: http://blog.nobiscuit.com/ tremendously helpful. There's a patch for controlling the LEDs and buttons, which successfully applies to 3.2.6 (-current). I've compiled it, but haven't run it yet because I'm trying to figure out my RAID problem first. Installation in a nutshell: (nearly identical to the above source and the ARMEDSlackware Marvell-kirkwood instructions) For the ix2-200 systems: Marvell>> setenv arcNumber 1682(Continue reading)
