[Bug 1196946] Re: installer lacks support for Calxeda ECX-2000

[Adam Conrad]

Talked to Rob in person, and he concluded that they don't need this in
raring, but they *do* need this in precise for the lts-* backports
kernels.

Title:
  installer lacks support for Calxeda ECX-2000

Status in “libdebian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “libdebian-installer” source package in Precise:
  New
Status in “libdebian-installer” source package in Raring:
  Fix Committed
Status in “libdebian-installer” source package in Saucy:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On a Calxeda ECX-2000 (aka Midway) system the device tree model name is different than that on Highbank, so the installer reports "unknown" instead of the expected "generic".
  Easy fix is to add a matching line for Midway. The name comes from the kernel device tree: arch/arm/boot/dts/ecx-2000.dts
