You need to fit a link to set the 7211 to boot from its internal ROM to get
the '<' prompt for internal memory load. Find the link, fit it, and then (at
9600bps) hit reset then wakeup. You *should* get the prompt.
If you don't, there's something funny about your hardware.
Personally, I'd be trying to use 2.4 if at all possible: the 7211 eval board
has 16MB of ram which although segmented, has (I seem to remember) 2MB
segment sizes, meaning all the clever stuff the crash&burn patches did to
set up the MMU enough so that the kernel would fit in one physical DRAM page
(which were only 512k on the Psion) aren't actually needed - you just need
tweak the arch/arm/mm/mm-xxxx bits to show the actual memory organisation &
the kernel will sort itself out.
