Hi all, I hope this is the correct list to ask these questions?
I am trying to get OpenWRT running on the Xilinx Spartan 3E Starter Kit. So far I have MIPS1 - R3000 instruction set up and running :))). I can download and run binary files. The 64MB DDR is working fine :). The MIPS can execute programs from DDR :). The memory space seems big enough to run a non-trivial verson of Linux. The Starter Kit has an ethernet port which is known to work and I have code which talks to it OK. Adding an MMC interface seems easy enough and there are MMC drivers for the Broadcom OpenWRT port which compile OK. I can compile OpenWRT-trunk :))). I have 'modified' the BCM version to compile for MIPS1. This all seems to be working OK. I have modified serial_out to point to my UART. Again all compiles OK and looks OK in the disassembly :))). From what I can tell, however, the kernel and modules are not (from what I can tell) being compiled for MIPS1 but rather for MIPS32? This MAY be the reason I have yet to see any boot up serial output? I have yet to find the right place to modify in the build tree to get MIPS1 kernel and module compilation? Suggestions please.... I would GREATLY appreciate any other suggestions any of you might have as to how you did your port, etc. Maybe there is another version that is already known to run on R3000? This would, I suspect, make my port MUCH easier. From what I can tell I am VERY close to having full Open Linux running on the Spartan 3E Starter Kit (open MIPS vhdl, open Linux, etc.) OpenWRT is a VERY VERY nice distribution. I am most impressed :). Thanks in advance for your time and help. regards, wiz (pen name) p.s. - Please feel free to e-mail me - xxx (at) nei (dot) mv (dot) com or respond on this list.
