HDAMA status at LANL

[ron minnich]

well, to sum up, on a 1 CPU system with arima/hdama
- etherboot is working fine
- linux loading from flash is working fine
- once linux is loaded, it can't find an IRQ for the on-board 
  ethernet. There is a PIRQ problem I will try to fix tomorrow.

What's really neat, is that the fear level of cvs update is greatly 
reduced. A week or two ago I tar'ed up the tree every time I did a cvs 
update, for fear that I'd be left with a busted tree. The tree is solid 
enough that this worry is over.

The K8 is moving fast! We hope to have a 4-node bproc cluster working this 
week. There will be some more interesting K8 news next week :-)

In a day or two we start the NEWISYS port.
