CRUX ARMHF new test image available

I've uploaded some stuff thus you can review and start to play with.

It seems really stable and, now, the only trunk is binutils-(20110627). Now the toochain has Graphite support built-in.
binutils-2.21.52, gcc-4.6.1, eglibc-2.14
gmp-5.0.2-2, mpfr-3.0.1-p4, mpc-0.9
ppl-0.11.2, cloog-0.16.2


Only the kernel is dirty as it's built using a mix of some unreleased rtp's patches but is good enough to work on and to use an updated udev.

Known issues:
1) sdma doesn't work properly. Broken kernel driver.
2) alsa-utils does build but segfault. Broken kernel driver.


Here there is the latest toolchain and system:

crux-armhf-2.7-test1-2G_image.xz (887M)
- it's a full working MMC image of my machine that does use ilenia as
ports manager and overlay supervisor. Thus a 'man ilenia' could help.
It has the serial console and sshd enabled and a static IP
(192.168.0.211).
The 'root' pasword is 'cruxppc' as i've a lot of devel machines from
CRUX PPC project and i use to have the same root password everywhere.
The arm ports tree overlay is located 'as local' in /usr/ports/arm .

arm-ports.tar.bz2 (635K)
- it's an archive with ports from the arm overlay

core.tar.bz2 (99M)
opt.tar.bz2 (21M)
pkg.list (3.2K)
- they're archives with the built packages to install as chroot.

linux-2.6.39.2-efikamx.config (57K)
- it's the kernel config i used to build the "dirty" bootkernel

uImage (3.5M)
bootkernel-modules.tar.bz2 (779K)
- they'are boot kernel and modules/firmware
