That's correct.

If the physical resources on your board (RAM, ethernet PHY, etc) are 
similiar to the V2MB1000 board that mbvanilla_net supports, then kernel 
changes will be minimal.

The first step is get the mbvanilla_net target going on your board - use 
the usual debugging methods (XMD etc) to ensure that the memory, uart 
etc are all working.  Don't modify the address map (in system.mhs).

If you tell us a bit more about the board you are using, we can probably 
provide some more detail suggestions.

Regards,

John
