Well, I would like to be able to work with my S3C2410 based board fully under FreeBSD, but I did not succeed yet to build a working kernel/loader for my board, even JTAG adapter I got with the board works with sofware running under Windows. It connects to parallel port, bears a WIGGLER mark on it, if anybody has some experience with it I would like to hear. That being said, being a bit experienced in some areas, I consider myself only a newbie in JTAG area, I would like to ask what are you doing with JTAG? There are still areas where one could still discover something new... Regards, Milan -- This address is used only for mailing list response.
