I suggest you get a copy of my tree by anonymous rsync from
samba.anu.edu.au::linux-pmac-devel.  Look at http://rsync.samba.org/
if you need more information about rsync.

I'm working on getting linux up and running on a non-prep, non-pci VME
board with a 603e and having some trouble with it.  I've got the kernel
uncompressing down to where it should be, but it traps when it gets a
bit of the way in to init/main.c.  When I write the contents of the BAT
structure to dual port RAM on the VME bus, I get all zeros, leading me
to believe I'm not setting thins up correctly down in the
platform-specific sections.  

It could be just that the RAM is set for write-back caching and the
values are still in the cache.  (Write-back caching is the default
when the data MMU is disabled.)  You can use the dcbst instruction to
make sure the stuff you write gets flushed to memory.
