LSP(Linux support package) for PPC405EP
Hi, Is Open Source Linux Kernel supports IBM's PPC405EP Evaluation Platform? I have seen some files in linux kernel(open souce) related to 405EP. But, i want to make sure that whether there is a complete support for PPC405EP in Open source Linux kernel. If so, please tell me which version includes this support. As far as boot loader is concerned, I know that uBoot is good. But, i am looking for BSP(Board support package). Thanks, Shiva ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.

Need help booting linux on IBM 405EP eval board
Hi, guys. I sent a message like this to the U-Boot mailing list last night. I've been told this is definitely not a U-Boot problem, so I'm hoping that the people on this list can help me. I'm having a hard time getting U-Boot to boot Linux on an IBM 405EP evaluation board. Here's what I've tried: First, I think my kernels are fine. I can compile 2.4.18 from an older version of the ELDK or I can compile 2.4.24 from the latest released ELDK. I'm using ELDK tools for all of my builds. Using the IBM bootloader that comes on the board and the treeboot image file format, I can get the IBM board to tftp my kernel over the lan and run it. So, I think the kernel is working fine. I also don't have any problem running U-Boot. I compiled 1.0.2 and installed it on the board. U-Boot runs fine and I can make it tftp a file over the network as well. Using iminfo, I can see that it read what I expect. However, no matter what I try, I can't get the kernel to actually boot. In the older kernel, I'm using a make pImage and in the newer kernel I do make uImage. I've also tried running the mkimage tool manually with various options to see if I could get a kernel to boot. iminfo says the kernel is fine and I get to the Uncompressing Linux Kernel ... OK stage but it stops there. I'm aware that the denx.de site has a FAQ which appears to address this issue: http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/LinuxHangsAfterUncompressingKernel However, the structure mentioned there (bd_info) doesn't even seem to apply for a 405EP-based board. The ppcboot.h file isn't included by the files used when building a 405EP kernel for the 405EP evaluation board. It still could be a problem passing parameters to the kernel, I suppose, but I am not sure how those are defined in the first place. I searched the mailing list archives but couldn't find anyone who had a similar problem. So, if someone is using U-Boot to boot a kernel on the 405EP evaluation board would be willing to give me some pointers, I'd appreciate it.

Any ideas? If you're connected via a serial console make sure to append the correct bootoptions to the kernel to get your output to /dev/ttySx.

I've been And you have received replies thaty pointed to the problem. Indeed, as my later email indicated, I found that the Linux build is using the file arch/ppc/platforms/evb405ep.[c/h] and that file has a board_info struct, separate and different from the ppcboot.h file which is in a totally different directory. I've made evb405ep.h match U-Boot's u-boot.h, but that hasn't helped my problem. I guess I have two questions then: - Does the build environment (from ELDK 3.0) for the 405EP evaluation board use the file mentioned above? Is that the place where I have to make the board_info struct match the struct in U-Boot (u-boot/include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h)? - Has the Linux/build environment already been ported for this particular board? It's in the Makefile and there are certainly board-specific files available in the above directory. So, I figured that I wouldn't have to go through a porting process to boot Linux. And, again, the IBM bootloader loads and boots kernels just fine. Does anyone out there use this evaluation board, Linux 2.4 and U-Boot or am I really the first?
