Re: To make CL CS8900a work in 8-bit mode

I finished two eCos ports for new targets: Olimex LPC-E2294 development

CS8900A ethernet chip had been wired in a 8-bit mode by Olimex designers.

Only with this minimal patch I get an ethernet support for the
LPC-E2294. RedBoot for this board does an upload via tftp just pretty
well in that 8-bit mode. If this patch will be committed, I send my
ports for these boards. It's very important to fulfil all accesses to
CL CS8900A registers via CS_IN(), CS_OUT() macros.

I think with this patch, and certainly with board port contributions, we will need a copyright assignment to be able to put these in eCos. Have a look at http://ecos.sourceware.org/patches.html and in particular http://ecos.sourceware.org/patches-assignment.html

I know it's a bit bureaucratic, but it's quite important as described on that page.
