Freescale 8272ADS configuration

2006-04-14 Thread Krishnan
Hi Carlos,

I found two interesting documents on the Web (one from a grad student and
other from Freescale website). Both are generic steps from U-BOOT porting to
Linux bring up. I don't know which kernel you decide to use but these are
quite useful to read to get very good inputs.

I have both these documents (they are for 860 and 8260 but as Wolfgang
mentioned) these are very closely related as they are the same family. I
cannot attach documents more than 100 KB on this list.

One more WAR Story for you too from helicontech

Cheers,
Krishnan

Carlos,

You need to load u-boot using the following BDI2000 config file:

ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/BDI2000/MPC8260ADS.cfg

u-boot itself needs to be configured with 

make  MPC8272ADS_config

before it is built.

The kernel needs to be configured with

make ads8272_config  make oldconfig

before it is built.

And most importantly you should read the user manual on 

http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual

It's a bit 8xx centric but most of it applies to the 82xx as well.

 but unfortunately it doesn't explain how to bring up the board from
 scratch. Does anyone know what I need to do to load uboot and linux
 on this board ?
 
 Thanks,

There are also versions for other processors, like MPC5200, MPC834x,
MPC85xx, PPC405 and PPC440; see
