The Ångström Distribution

You can get the angstrom 2007.12 release images for base-image and console-image for ep93xx machines from:

http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/releases/2007.12/images/ep93xx/

* base-image is a fairly bare-bones image that will allow you to format
disks and external media and install stuff from the feeds

* console-image is a pretty full-featured command-line image, with more
networking (e.g. bluetooth and wifi connected to the usb ports) options
installed. It also allows access to the feeds to install more applications.

If your board has an old (or faulty) redboot that passes the wrong board
id to R1 you can do something like:

  load -v -r -b 0x600000 -m http -h 172.20.3.1 /koen/ep93xx/zImage
  mfill -b 0x600000 -l 4 -p 0xe3a01c03
  mfill -b 0x600004 -l 4 -p 0xe38110be
  exec

To fix that. In the future we should consider using 'arm-kernel-shim'
for that.

After installation and network setup, be sure to do 'ipkg update ; ipkg
upgrade' to get future bugfixes and security updates.
