Not quite. A quick check reveals that the bcm7038 is a r5000 based
mips64 bit at heart (I'm a little confused here, there seem to be also
32bit r5000?). So not only will you be doing a new cpu port (level 2),
but really a new architecture , i.e. mips64 - so you enter the game at
level

That's not quite correct. IIRC, the purple board also uses a 64bit
MIPS processor (5Kc). So it's just anothe rnew board port.
The core in the BCM7038 is a 5Kf, I'm not sure how the minor
All the tasks you mention here are performed by U-Boot. U-Boot _is_
the boot loader.
Right, I'm just having trouble getting to grips with the code flow, the
start.S in the CPU is the initial entry point, at what point does that hand
over to U-Boot? Any chance you could give me a brief

Hi Peter,
I posted a message before about this, but I didn't really give it the most
descriptive subject (I went off to find the chip model and then forgot to
add it to the subject, doh!)
Basically I'm trying to port uboot to the Broadcom BCM7038 chip, the current
bootloader I have is
