It is a LH7A404 Evaluation Board from NXP/Philips which has only the
CF-Card Reader attached and if I power the couple up, I see the LED 
blinking that it try to read the CF-Card.

Unter BSD I have a working Image which I can write to the CF-Card and
it boots but my LH7 is a little bit weird with Linux

Can you tell me, what I must exactly modify, that the LH7 find the
kernel to bootup?
