===============================
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.
Supported peripherals
=====================
- SA1100 LCD frame buffer (8/16bpp...sort of)
- on-board SMC 92C96 ethernet NIC
- SA1100 serial port
- flash memory access (MTD/JFFS)
- pcmcia
- touchscreen(ucb1200)
- ps/2 keyboard
- console on LCD screen
- serial ports (ttyS[0-2])
- ttyS0 is default for serial console
- Smart I/O (ADC, keypad, digital inputs, etc)
See http://www.eurotech-inc.com/linux-sbc.asp for IOCTL documentation
and example user space code. ps/2 keybd is multiplexed through this driver
To do
=====
- UCB1200 audio with new ucb_generic layer
- everything else! :-)
Notes
=====
- The flash on board is divided into 3 partitions. mtd0 is where
the ADS boot ROM and zImage is stored. It's been marked as
read-only to keep you from blasting over the bootloader. :) mtd1 is
for the ramdisk.gz image. mtd2 is user flash space and can be
utilized for either JFFS or if you're feeling crazy, running ext2
on top of it. If you're not using the ADS bootloader, you're
welcome to blast over the mtd1 partition also.
- 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.

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.
