+The Intrinsyc CerfBoard is a StrongARM 1110-based computer on a board that measures
+approximately 2" square. It includes an Ethernet controller, an RS232-compatible serial port, a
+USB function port, and one CompactFlash+ slot on the back. Pictures can be found at the
+Intrinsyc website, http://www.intrinsyc.com.
+
+This document describes the support in the Linux kernel for the Intrinsyc CerfBoard as of
+version 2.4.0-test4-np1.
+
+Supported in this version:
+ - CompactFlash+ slot (select PCMCIA in General Setup and any options that may be required)
+ - Onboard Crystal CS8900 Ethernet controller (Cerf CS8900A support in Network Devices)
+ - Serial ports with a serial console (hardcoded to 38400 8N1)
+
+Not supported in this version (yet):
+ - LCD driver/touchscreen interface
+ - UDC (a driver exists right now, but is unstable and slow and only works with the Linux USB)
+
+In order to get this kernel onto your Cerf, you need a server that runs both BOOTP and
+TFTP. Detailed instructions should have come with your evaluation kit on how to use the
+bootloader. This series of commands will suffice:
+
+ make cerf_config
+ make xconfig
+ make dep
+ make zImage
+ cp arch/arm/boot/zImage <TFTP directory>
+
+The default config uses a 4MB RAM disk located at 0xc0500000 as root. Setting the board to
+mount root from a NFS partition works, too.
