"ip=" command line strangeness...

On my previous project, a 2.4 kernel on PPC, I frequently used "ip=w.x.y.z" on the kernel command line to specify a static IP address for my target board (when booting with a flash- or RAM-based root filesystem). Similarly, when using an NFS-mounted root fs, I would use "ip=w.x.y.z:a.b.c.d", a

Is there some articles discussing how to change bare-board code to linux driver?

>Where can i find them?thanks. In addition to LDD3 (for 2.6 kernels, or the freely available LDD2 for 2.4 kernels), you might want to look at some existing Linux drivers that are based on "bare metal" / "no OS" drivers. The ones I know of are for Xilinx peripherals, for example (within the L
