-Thin Client / Single Board Computer
-
-The Thin Client, a low cost high power single board computer, has been
-designed to provide intuitive graphical displays in embedded systems.
-
-For more details, contact Applied Data Systems or see
-http://www.flatpanels.com/products.html
-
-Current Linux support for this product has been provided by Nicolas Pitre
-<nico@cam.org>.
-
-It's currently possible to mount a root filesystem via NFS providing a
-complete Linux environment.  Otherwise a ramdisk image may be used.  Use
-'make thinclient_config' before any 'make config'.  This will set up
-defaults for ThinClient support.
-
-The kernel zImage is linked to be loaded and executed at 0xc0200000.  
-Also the following registers should have the specified values upon entry:
-
-	r0 = 0
-	r1 = 24	(this is the ThinClient architecture number)
-
-Here is a tipical angel.opt option file if the kernel is loaded through
-the Angel Debug Monitor:
-
------ begin angelboot.opt -----
-base 0xc0200000
-entry 0xc0200000
-r0 0x00000000
-r1 0x00000018
-device /dev/ttyS1
-options "9600 8N1"
-baud 115200
-#otherfile ramdisk.gz
-#otherbase 0xc0800000
-exec minicom
------ end angelboot.opt -----
-
-Then the kernel (and ramdisk if otherfile/otherbase lines above are
-uncommented) would be loaded with:
-
-	angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage
-
-Here it is assumed that the ThinClient is connected to ttyS1 on your PC
-and that minicom is preconfigured with /dev/ttyS1, 9600 baud, 8N1, no flow
-control by default.
-
-If any other bootloader is used, ensure it accomplish the same, especially
-for r0/r1 register values before jumping into the kernel.
-
-
-Supported peripherals:
-- SA1100 LCD frame buffer (only 8bpp yet)
-- on-board SMC 92C94 ethernet NIC
-- SA1100 serial port
-- flash memory access
-- possibly UCB1200 audio (not tested yet)
-
-To do:
-- touchscreen driver
-- 16bpp frame buffer support
-- extra (external) serial port driver
-- pcmcia
-- some console keyboard support (maybe IR?)
-- everything else!  :-)
-
-Any contribution can be sent to nico@cam.org and will be greatly welcome!
