So i have this old Promise NS4300N NAS. It's running linux-2.6.11, booting it from u-boot. And i really hate the stock firmware with the crappy proprietary hardware raid driver and hostile userland.
I thought i might be able to make it slightly less useless if i could flash some openWRT unto it, but the openwrt mpc83xx images don't really seem to be compatible.
Hardware:
SOC: mpc8343vragd
RAM: 2 * Elpida d5116afta-6b-e (128MB total)
Flash: Spansion S29GL128N (16MB)
SATA controller: PDC40917 (TX4310) on pci bus
Ethernet: mpc8349 compatible (gianfar) + ip1001
USB: NEC upd720102 on pci bus
RTC: HT1381
There's also a Winbond w83l785g close to an at24c02 eeprom. Not sure what those two are up to.
And some buttons and leds, but i don't care much about those.
I have the kernel source from Promise that seems to differ quite a bit from the mainline 2.6.11.
3.3MB of uncut diff, gzipped.
