Linux port to the TI Innovator[TM] Development Kit for the OMAP Platform released

MontaVista Software, Inc. is pleased to release the initial Linux port for the
Texas Instruments "Innovator[TM] Development Kit for the OMAP Platform" to the
open source community.

For more information and documentation on OMAP products please consult:

	http://www.omap.com

The patch against linux-2.4.19-rmk4 is available here:

	ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/omap/patch-2.4.19-rmk4-ggd1.bz2

This is still very much a work in progress.  The following peripherals are currently
working:

	- serial ports
	- LCD frame buffer
	- LCD touchscreen
	- Innovator Break-out-board Ethernet
	- AIC23 audio
	- I2C
	- on-board flash memory

The currently recommended cross-compiler can be found at:

	ftp://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/toolchain/cross-2.95.3.tar.bz2

For general kernel build instructions, please see:

	http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/docs/kerncomp.shtml

To build a kernel specifically for the Innovator, use the following commands:

	make innovator_config
	make oldconfig
	make dep
	make zImage

Find the compiled kernel as arch/arm/boot/zImage.  This kernel is intended
to be used with an NFS root filesystem. For instructions on setting up and
booting the target using rrload firmware, please refer to:

	ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/omap/README

Note that this kernel has been tested on an Innovator revision ES2.6 only. Your
success may vary depending on the version of the hardware you're using. This
code is made available with the usual "no warranty what so ever" conditions
as usual so use at your own risk. For extra special support you may contact
MontaVista.

Contributions are welcome.  If you have any code to contribute, please send
patches to me.  Special thanks to the folks at RidgeRun for doing the initial
OMAP port.

Have fun!
