Welcome to the wonderful world of BDM. The bottom line is the BDM software is likely initializing something in the processor that you are not doing in your code. This is an all too typical problem I have seen in many organizations, and is the reason the first thing I do is write processor boot roms and initialization, then throw the BDM away before even starting on the kernel.
.... Now, the weird thing is, if I do an "IN" command (which does some basic initialization and puts the processor in debug mode) and then jump to flash and execute my code, everything works fine.
Yes, indeed, you are missing something in your code. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
