HAL configuration is a complex if you don't know much about XML. Firstly
I assume that you should be heading towards correct directions, then you
just go ahead with XML stuff and HAL configuration. You would find some
HAL stuff on RedHat websites. And google might be a good idea at the
same time.
Good luck.
