[ECOS] redboot for ixp1200?

[gopi at india dot tejasnetworks dot com]

Is redboot supported for IXP1200 Eval board.  I got messages on
linux-arm@lists.arm.linux.org.uk
that ixp1200 is currently not supported by redboot and hence we need
to use cygmon.

Any idea if any body is working on getting ixp1200 eval board support
in redboot?

thanx
gopi
