This should be fairly straight forward. The caveats are:
* eCos HAL for 7750 - we have support for 7709, 7729 and some others.
I don't know how different the 7750 is from them.
* I assume that you'd want a video console of some sort, or maybe serial?
These things would have to be written as well.
Probably plenty of little details in there to worry about as well.
