I have plenty of experience getting psos and vxworks running on a few different processors, but I am unfamiliar with the internals of how linux is booted. I'm using ESTC's cheapo visionICE emulator solution, and would appriciate any help with getting this thing up and running. The main problems that I see are: Its not CHRP or PREP. No prom, so i need to: Set up the memory map. Program the EPIC. Verify that the current serial drivers work with the Sandpoint's NS PC87308. Please email me directly, as I am not subscribed to this list, although i do read it regularly on the linuxppc site. nyet@nbase.com [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
