Dear All,
Has anyone tries this bios on SC2200 from National Semiconductor?
We plan to use Leneo embeddix on SC2200 we plan to use expressloader from national and customise for linux.Will it work?

Yes, I have ported LinuxBIOS so that it works on at least one SC2200 platform. Recently others have started on ports to the SC1200 too, but I don't know how well that work has been progressing.
I haven't compiled LinuxBIOS the last month, so it could be that the current CVS tree won't work on the SC2200, but it should be possible to get it working without too much trouble.

You will probably have to do the same kind of work that has alredy gone into Linux to make it work with LinuxBIOS, you have to remove all the BIOS calls from the Linux kernel and replace them with code that gets that information from the XPressLoader instead.

I compiled it recently and it is fine.

It works as far as I know, but the experts on the list can tell you more.
