Maybe. Which 82xx is it? There is a notable difference
between, say, the 824x boards and the 827x boards. If it
is the latter, perhaps the existing 82xx/ pq2 or mpc8272
parts are already sufficient?
If it is the former group, 824x, perhaps some of the parts
in embedded6xx/ are usable? Also note that I am working on
publishing an 824x StorCenter port under embedded6xx/ at
this time as well. First patches were posted to linuxppc-dev
list at ozlabs.org.
