This is MILO -- a bootstrap loader for Linux/MIPS on ARC compliant
systems. Please send comments, bug reports and so on to the
Linux/MIPS developers' mailinglist linux@waldorf-gmbh.de.

MILO has been successfully tested on Deskstation Tyne, Acer
PICA-61 Mips Magnum 4000 and Olivetti M700-10 systems. There 
is some Deskstation rPC44 support included but not yet tested.

If you have an ARC system which is not identified by MILO,
please send us the ARC Vendor ID, Product ID, System ID and
any information MILO wasn't able to find out. We will include
your system in later releases.

NOTE: Some parts of MILO were written by using copyrighted and
properietary information of Microsoft Corporation and Silicon
Graphics, Inc. These parts cannot be released in source code but
are provided as a library which can be distributed in binary form
under the terms of the GNU PUBLIC LICENSE (GPL) except the fact
that you can't get the source for these files. For all other files
the GPL applies. See the file COPYING for details.

This release contains binaries too. If you want to compile MILO
yourself, please make sure that you have the latest release of
Linux/MIPS which is currently 1.2.10. Other combinations of
Linux/MIPS and Milo might work but have not been tested. Without
kernel sources you cannot compile MILO.

 Have fun,
