Well, I grabbed it from U-boot too, so it would be fine, if you could
include it in the mkvmlinuz package. :-)

Hehe. :-) Even the ArticiaP isn't out yet, but engineering samples should be
available since the last year (as you may know)!
Fortunately we have now a successor for the AmigaOne, which is the Amy05
board (IIRC uses a Tundra northbrigde).

AFAIK the board can be used with an Amiga1200, but can also work on it's
own, as AmigaOS4 doesn't need the original chipset. So it is more or less
something like the Efika design, but with an interface to the Amiga1200's
internal CPU slot.
