[LinuxBIOS] Geode GX1 system IRQ handling

So I'm back to working on getting LB on my Geode-based MaxTerm 230 thin
client again. I've built a test image from the Eaglelion 5bcm target
that boots this machine. However, IRQ mapping is not working. I have
no doubt that is because the MaxTerm differs from the 5bcm. :-)
I'm not entirely sure how to proceed. I know I can create PIRQ tables,
but in some posts, I've seen mention that this is outdated and ACPI
should be used. Even if I were to build a PIRQ table, the usual method
of booting with the system's default BIOS is out of the question. The
MaxTerm only ran WinCE 3.0, and has a WinCE BIOS instead of a full PC
BIOS. Unless someone knows of a WinCE system inspection tool that might
reveal the IRQ assignments.
Advice appreciated....
thanks,
Jonathan
