[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 0/2] Add ATI IXP PATA driver to x86/64 target

Hi list,

within the Freifunk project in Germany we currently use very low cost thin-clients (FSC Futro S550) for VPN offloading.
Those thin-clients have an internal CF card (1GB) attached to the chipset's PATA controller that uses the arcane pata_atiixp driver.
This seems like an ideal storage option for booting the device from.

I would like to enable OpenWrt to boot from this CF card and therefor would need this driver to be built into the kernel.

If changes like these to the generic x86_64 target are not desireable the other option would be to create an own subtarget specifically for this device.

What do you think?

Regards,
Felix
