Working kernel with usb networking (Rover P1/mio336/yakumo)

Hi,

I got a working kernel and initrd from Konstantine last night. I
updated it a bit so usb networking works out of the box (so no need
for a serial cable).

I put the files on http://lumumba.uhasselt.be/~jedi/yakumo-linux/

I used the zImage, initrd and default.txt with haret 3.6. LCD isn't
working yet, but when the kernel starts, your screen should go dark.
After a few seconds, the usb_ether module starts a usb0 network
connection at ip address 192.168.0.201, and starts a telnet daemon
afterwards.
You can use usbnet (in linux, no idea how it works in windows) and
your usb sync cable to telnet to the device (telnet 192.168.0.201),
and you're inside it's shell.

The default_nfs.txt file is for mounting the rootfs over NFS (through
the usb interface). It didn't work with me, but I think the problem
lays with my nfs server. I could mount the nfs share with the initrd
boot.

So, I hope now more people will get involved, as a serial cable isn't
necessary for this to work.

Greetz,
JeDi
