8237RP - now what is that?
Could be the VT8237R Plus (hence the P), but I'm not sure.
Is there a chance it'll work on this board?
It won't work out of the box right now I'm afraid. Once 8237R support is in the tree you could start experimenting with the board. It might come up on the first try. :)
VT8237R is already in svn, but the CN700 is not yet.
It would also be interesting if the ROM chips is PLCC or SPI, and if it's in a socket or soldered onto the board.
It's socketed. Here's a picture (sorry for the lousy angle and low resolution, it's the best I could find): http://www.picco.nl/images/A32624.jpg
I don't know if it's SPI or PLCC yet.
