I have enabled the serial port, but no console message so far.  Perhaps,
my bigger challenge is to get access to documentation for this board.
It's manufactured by Portwell (NAD-2050), but there is very data that is
available on their site or from the live techsupport contact.

I haved tried including ramtest.inc, but without serial port output, it's
difficult to tell.  BTW:  I'm attaching my lspci output and config file
for reference.  I'm going to do more due-dilligence on SDRAM initialization
before I have more progress to report.
