Ok, maybe it's better to start from the beginning.
Now I'm using a Lite5200b board, just to avoid problems with my
hardware, and I'm trying to have a bootable kernel.
With kernel version 2.6.24.6 I do the following commands
$ make ARCH=powerpc lite5200_defconfig
$ make ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- uImage
then I copy the arch/powerpc/boot/uImage and a rootfs.uimage on the
board, but uBoot stops at the beginning:

So I tried using the deprecated ppc
$ make ARCH=ppc lite5200_defconfig
$ make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- uImage
It still doesn't work, but it goes a little further:
=> bootm 0x03000000
0x04000000

============================================
The only way I was able to get something working, even though it sounds
a little strange to me, is loading the config from powerpc folder but
compiling in ppc
$ make ARCH=powerpc lite5200_defconfig
$ make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-gnu- uImage
=> bootm 0x03000000

Do you have any idea about how to make it working doing all the stuff
with ARCH=powerpc?
Best regards,
Fabio

I've tried to port my exesting configurations to the powerpc tree but some
configurations files are missing.
First, create a new .dts file for your board in arch/powerpc/boot/dts.
(just copy the lite5200.dts file). Modify the .dts to have your
board's name (in the form "<vendor>,<boardname>") in the compatible
and model properties.
Next, add your boards name to the list of boards in
arch/powerpc/platforms/52xx/mpc5200_simple.c.
I need to set PSC3 - PSC4 in uart mode:
before in file *arch/ppc/platforms/lite5200.c* I added
struct mpc52xx_psc_func mpc52xx_psc_functions[] = {
{ .id = 3,
.func = "uart",
},
{ .id = 4,
.func = "uart",
},
{ .id = -1, /* End entry */
.func = NULL,
}
};
Edit your boards .dts file and uncomment PSCs 3 and 4. Comment out
PSC1 if you aren't using it.
I need to set PSC4 as a low level debug: *
*before in file *arch/ppc/platforms/lite5200.h *I added
#define MPC52xx_PF_CONSOLE_PORT 4 /* PSC4 */
I don't think we have any early debug enabled yet in arch/powerpc for
the mpc5200.
Finally I need to set the virtual memory translation on a range of 128 MB:
before in file *arch/ppc/kernel/head.S *I added
/*ori r11,r11,BL_128M<<2|0x2 set up BAT registers for 604 */
ori r11,r11,BL_128M<<2|0x2 /* set up BAT registers for 604 */
could you please explain me how to do the same operations in powerpc tree??
New file is arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S. I don't think that is the
cleanest way to do it though. Why do you need to change the BAT
mapping from 256 to 128?
Cheers,
g.
