Hello,

   The board currently provides its own Yocto Build Linux (OpenWRT based) 
which uses uboot.

Thanks and regards

The CentOS 7 ppc64 and ppc64le variants are supposed to be installed on IBM 
Power (or compatible boxes, like Tyan or others, from the OpenPower
consortium)

I didn't know that some dev board could exist that were targeting ppc.
Are those board ppc64 compatible ? What is loaded by default on those ?
Nothing would work "by default" from a CentOS side, but something could 
probably be done if you build a RootFS composed with the ppc64/ppc64le tree 
(depending on what's compatible with your board) and use uboot to chainload 
?

Can you give more details about the available and running distros for that 
board ?

[CentOS] CentOS for PowerPC Board ( Freescale T2080) with U-Boot

2017-07-18 Thread Jaytirth S Khairatkar
Hello,

  I got CentOS for PPC64 from this link
<http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/ppc64/>  but it uses grub. I want
to use CentOS on a PowerPC Freescale T2080 board with U-Boot as the boot
loader. Is it available? 

  

 Thanks and regards
