would be nice to see your patches when you are ready :).. it might even
pave way to get sdp2430 support in place..

I would recommend you start with reading Lauterbach user manual(hitting
F1 key when trace32 runs will help). IMHO, Lauterbach will be the best
tool to go ahead and use esp for OMAP2-3 processors.
When you read the user manual, pay close attention to 'd.load.elf ...
/strippart /lowerpath' option also s.path..
