13 I should have stated that I know little of MIPS arch. I do
14 not know the differences, subtle or published between the
15 M14K and the Mips32 (vanilla() cores. I mostly asked because

17 open source embedded linux for the Microchip 32 bit
18 processors. Since you indicate that it should work, I'll
