Hi All,
I have just started porting kernel 2.4 to Galileo Technology evaluation board, and I'm new to PowerPC architectures (intending to start with the 7400). I have few questions so if possible please answer even part of them : 1.. What reference is the best in the kernel's source tree that I can see that will be a good refernece for our embedded system ? 2.. The kernel is compiled to 0xc0000000 - what should I do with this address ? should I set a BAT for translating this address to address 0x0 ? 3.. In run time - which of the MMU features the kernel uses ? BATs , Page tables (ofcourse) , segements ? and how they interact together ? 4.. Did any one try SMP in kernel 2.4 in PPC platforms ? and if yes , please drop few words regarding it ! 5.. If you have a documentation regarding the booting process in ppc platforms (especially the kernel download and firing it up process) please send me the link. Thank a million, Rabeeh ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
