Linux port for the 440EP processor

[Rick McBain]

Been there, done that.  The only code they will hand out is the custom
IBM OS stuff they have. I have talked to the VP of the embedded
processor division, all the way on down. 

But I would be happy if somebody would prove me wrong - I think the semi
makers should provide Linux drivers available on their website.  I know
AMD has a bunch of drivers for their embedded chips on theirs.

Any Linux code, at this point anyways, has to be gotten from somebody
other than AMCC. However, I will be speaking to their director of
software engineering tommorrow, about all these Linux issues. Maybe
things will change. 

Cheers,
Rick
