* Patch by Marc Singer, 29 May 2003:
Fixed rarp boot method for IA32 and other little-endian CPUs.
* Patch by Marc Singer, 28 May 2003:
Added port I/O commands.
* Patch by Matthew McClintock, 28 May 2003
- cpu/mpc824x/start.S: fix relocation code when booting from RAM
- minor patches for utx8245
* Patch by Daniel Engström, 28 May 2003:
x86 update
* Patch by Dave Ellis, 9 May 2003 + 27 May 2003:
add nand flash support to SXNI855T configuration
fix/extend nand flash support:
- fix 'nand erase' command so does not erase bad blocks
- fix 'nand write' command so does not write to bad blocks
- fix nand_probe() so handles no flash detected properly
- add doc/README.nand
- add .jffs2 and .oob options to nand read/write
- add 'nand bad' command to list bad blocks
- add 'clean' option to 'nand erase' to write JFFS2 clean markers
- make NAND read/write faster
* Patch by Rune Torgersen, 23 May 2003:
Update for MPC8266ADS board
