Here's a first patch for the IGEL Winnet III thin client. It allows me to boot a Linux kernel half-way to the login prompt; at some point it hangs, though, so more work is needed.
Did you check the SDRAM timing? In my IGEL 316 terminals (also Geode GX1) this it the most fragile part.
This is a 233 MHz Geode GX1 based thin client with Ethernet, USB, VGA, a Disk-on-Chip, socketed DIP BIOS chip, a laptop-size RAM slot, a normal-size (PC) RAM slot (don't remember the correct name right now), and IDE connector, keyboard, mouse, sound, 2x serial port, parallel port, 1x ISA slot, 1x PCI slot. Fanless, extremely silent.
Maybe it can help me with my terminals. Could you please apply the attached patch series to a 2.6.21 kernel, build it with the attached kernel config and run it on your new shiny terminal? And later send me the kernel startup messages?
Thanks in advance Juergen
