 Hi Mark,

Hi Paul.

 Is there another platform that uses mpsc that can be used for
 testing?  I ask because I did spend a lot of time with PrPMC-280
 and motload/powerboot; some standalone, some on ATCA-F101.
 And with that hindsight, I can't help thinking that the right thing
 to do some eight years later is to simply consider removing the
 support for these old platforms.  Would that make your validation
 easier?  If so, then I'd recommend it.  This is of course, just my opinion.

Hmm, yeah, the c2k platform uses that bridge too.  I'll see if I can find
someone with one of those handy.

Since nobody seems to have a prmpc280/2800 anymore, it does seem prudent
to remove it.  It would make validation easier for me in that its one less
platform to worry about breaking.  If I don't hear anything in the next
few days, I'll make a patches to remove prpmc280/2800 support.

Thanks,

Mark

 If you have one handy and don't mind running a quick boot
 test for me,  please let me know.

 Thanks,

 Mark
