We got the brutus running with a linux kernel, now we are trying
to figure out how to do the same thing with another board based on
the ebsa110 + some extra chips. It has only 8mb and a different address map
obviously. We can download angel based apps using the ARM sdt
(which also works with the brutus) so I was wondering if angelboot
would work with our smaller board. I know I need to relink the kernel
for a different load address but I'm not sure what to use (or where exactly
to make the changes in the kernel source tree make files).  

I am also wondering where the angelboot options are documented/explained.
The one that comes in the angelboot tarball has the parms preset for
brutus, i.e.

base 0x8000
entry 0xc0008020
device /dev/ttyS0
options "9600 8N1" 
baud 115200
otherfile ramdisk.gz
otherbase 0x800000 

I took a guess at changing some of these (e.g. engry, base) so that
things would end up in one of the dram banks on our board and
cranked up angelboot. It looks like it makes a connection, but then
gets lost. This may be due to wrong options in opts or the zImage not
being linked correctly?....in any case I get the following when invoking
the angelboot:
:
%./angelboot  -f opts linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage
Initializing execution environment....
Downloading Image size 0x70576 to 0x8000

ERROR: Recieved 1d when expecting start packet character....
(the above repeats until I kill it w/cntl-c)

Any insights/hints on what to try/change are greatly appreciated
   thanks
