Had a look into UBoot at first but didn't find any port for the MPC55xx/e200, so when we stumbled upon a "working" ecos/redboot port we went with that.. Do you know where I could find the uboot port for the e200? We have phycore dev. kit (http://www.phytec.com/products/rdk/PowerPC/phyCORE-MPC5554.html) Just supposed to get it up and running, so peripherals will just be serial, ethernet and maybe CAN. / Per-Erik _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
