Hi Martin

I used your guide at http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/qnap/
to convert my QNAP-119P+ over to Debian. Works great.

At the moment Kirkwood is my priority, but i think we should have most
of it converted to DT in the next three months. Once that is over, i
can look at Orion5x.

It is great you offered to test. I have a Marvell orion5x reference
system, rd88f5182. So i can do a lot of the conversion using
that. What i think will cause problems is PCI. There is scary looking
PCI code in the -setup.c files. I don't know how easy that will be to
convert to DT. However, it looks like most targets don't actually use
PCI, so maybe some will be easier to convert than others.
