Greetings,
Support for the 21285 aka footbridge is presently in progress. It should
be done by the end of this month/beginning of December. We're actually
building our own low-end server product based around the chip (shrunk
onto an ATX sized motherboard, with some DMA IDE, standard IO, etc).
Mail me if you'd like more information.
Cheers,
Neil
