The first point I'll make is that you can't use Angel to debug ARM Linux.

The EBSA285 kernel assumes that you have loaded it into RAM at 0x00008000,
and when you call it, you have set R0 = 0 and R1 = EBSA285 architecture number.
Plus, it wants the parameter page set up.

I need to find the time to clean up the EBSA285 boot loader source (the IDE
driver specifically) before I can release it.
