This device looks interesting. However, I could not find any
information about the single most important issue in
firmware development (JTAG port). Many SOC devices,
if indeed this is a system on a chip, do not properly
implement a JTAG interface, or it is dysfunctional.

Let me know if you find somebody (hardware/firmware)
designer that can provided detailed information about
the JTAG interface.

Another killer point seems to be a lack of 2.6.x kernel
options. This may be do the SOC's details being
obscure, or did I miss that web page.....?

If it has a useful JTAG interface, then I'd be
interested in getting one to experiment, and
make available on the net.

Any other Debian-arm products, with a JTAG
interface, that is fully functional and documented
would be of keen interest to me. (suggestions)
