Yes, I am also trying to have pcmcia to work on my FADS board... it is already configured in the denx kernel for the following boards ivms8,lwmon.spd8xx,tqm8xx

to have it, it seems (havn't investigated deeply yet ) that their are just a couple of #define to add...
most of them are common to all board, but one of them is giving me serious problems : IDE0_INTERRUPT
I tried to find out in my boards documentation what interrupt was to be assigned to pcmcia, but I didn't find...
did I miss something ???

Hi

While trying to find an easy way to add non-volatile storage on a custion MPC860 board, I noticed that there was some support for IDE on the PCMCIA interface in the Linux kernel.

Does anyone know where I can find more information about that ? There seems to be a board (IVMS8) with such an IDE interface, but I haven't been able to find anything about it on the web.

IDE0_INTERRUPT specifies which irq level that should be used in the cpm for pcmcia. It is written into register pgcr.

You should be safe using the same as other boards unless you already are using that irq level for something else.
