Axis Developer Board release 1.1.0
==================================

This software uses elinux (port of Linux 2.0.38 for MMU less systems).
It is intended for the older developer board with the ETRAX 100 chip, but it
will also run on Developer Board LX with the ETRAX 100LX chip, but it will not
use the MMU of the ETRAX 100LX.

There are two labels on the developer board, one with the PCB assembly number
(on the top of the board) and one with the Axis part number (on the bottom of
the board). If your board has one of the following combinations of numbers,
the chip on your board is an ETRAX 100LX:

    Axis Part No | PCB ASS
    ----------------------
    0109-xxx-01	 | 17293 4
    0109-xxx-02	 | 18260 1
    0109-xxx-03	 | 18471 1

In that case you can run the devboard_lx software instead. You can find it at:

Installation
------------

The compiler is not included in the tgz-file. You should use cris-dist-1.15 or
later (available at ftp://ftp.axis.com/pub/axis/tools/cris/compiler-kit/ and
http://developer.axis.com/download/compiler/).

See http://developer.axis.com/doc/software/devboard/install-howto.html for
installation instructions.


New features since release 1.0.2
--------------------------------

* New build system using make (just like the devboard_lx software).

* Updated elinux kernel with improved serial port driver.

* Minix-shell is used as /bin/sh instead of sash. It is the most Bourne-like
  shell we could find that doesn't use the fork system call.

* Shell-scripts are (almost) the same as in the devboard_lx-R2_1_0 software.

* Minor updates to many applications.
