Call for testing: Mini2440 port

Hello,

I have in a previous post announced the Mini2440 port. It is
functional, and supports most of the devices on the board, but needs
further testing. Therefore I would like to encourage people with a
Mini2440 at hand to try to out this port. Please note that neither
NAND nor NOR flash memories are supported at this point. Currently,
U-Boot is required in order to load the NetBSD bootmini2440-bootloader.

NetBSD can currently be installed either to an SD-card, or the
Mini2440 can run as a diskless node.

Network Install to SD-card:

In order to install the NetBSD MINI2440 on an SD-card follow the steps below.
These instructions assume that DHCP is used to configure IPv4
addresses, and that a TFTP server is running at 10.0.0.1.
All binary files needed can either be build directly from the CVS
repository or obtained from the daily snapshot directory at
nyftp.netbsd.org (use newest with evbarm in pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD).

* The dhcp-server must be configured with a proper “next-server”
option, as in the following example /etc/dhcpd.conf:

host mini2440 {
     hardware ethernet 08:08:11:18:12:27;
     fixed-address 10.0.0.20;
     next-server 10.0.0.1;
}
