There was initial work done by Lennert Buytenhek for the TS-7200 that
worked fairly well. Not all of it was pushed to mainline. There were
a number of show-stopper issues if you tried to use vanilla (well,
showstoppers if you didn't know where to look / what to do ...). From
memory:
* 64M RAM required a discontig mem patch (32M boards were OK)
* Serial UART speed fix
* Fix nF -bit redboot problem
* CF support (and SD of course)
* Machine ID
* NAND partition table layout
* 2k page NAND
* YAFFS2
So there evolved various sets of patches and recipes for 2.6 on the
M/L. Most stuff, except SD support I think, could be made to work if
you did some hunting, but AFAIK no-one has been pushing fixes up-stream.
