I designed software of GLAN Tank.
IPL is Redboot. Redboot seek "/dev/hd[ab]1/vmlinuz" and "initrd" and boot it. LED and software shutdown button driver is original. Userland is perfect Debian Sarge.
Same product we released "LAN Tank", based on SH4 CPU, is used by many developers such as linux-sh kernel, gcc, glibc, gentoo, and NetBSD.GLAN Tank: http://supertank.iodata.jp/products/sotohdlgw/
