Hi All,

We compiled some kernels from the Linux git for our motherboards with P.A. Semi PA6T-1682M microprocessors for testing.

Downloads:

http://www.xenosoft.de/vmlinux-4.3-alpha6-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2 (Build date: 07. September 2015)

http://www.xenosoft.de/vmlinux-4.3-alpha7-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2 (Build date: 09. September 2015)

Maybe someone would like to test these kernels.

Further information about motherboards with P.A. Semi PA6T-1682M microprocessors:

* Electra: First development/eval board. Funky USB on localbus, plenty of PCI-e. Two GigE, one 10GigE XAUI. CompactFlash and IDE on localbus too. Usually shipped with a PCI-e SATA card and a USB card.

* Chitra: Second edition dev/eval board. Moved SATA and USB on-board, and removed some of the localbus hardware. Might have routed three GigE out instead of 2.

* Athena: Never released board with a smaller package chip, there's only a few of these around. It's similar to Chitra, and the silicon is the same.

* Nemo: Released as AmigaONE X1000. With co-processor: "Xena" 500 MHz XCore XS1-L2 124 SDS and SB600 southbridge. AMD/ATI’s SB600 provides the following I/O features:

- PCIe x4 link to CPU
- SATA-II AHCI controller with 4 ports
- PATA (IDE) controller (single channel)
- multiple USB ports (5 OHCI and 1 EHCI host controllers. All ports are fully USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 compliant)
- UAA compatible HD Audio controller
- PCIe-PCI bridge supporting multiple PCI slots with 5V signalling support
- 8259 compatible interrupt controller
- Real Time Clock

CompactFlash and Xena on localbus.

Cheers,

Christian
