A long subject...

I'm having trouble accessing the upper 8MB of the 16MB SDRAM SIMM on this
board.
I'm wondering if I don't have something configured wrong in my BDI2000
config file.

Didn't we discuss this once before?  There were some suggestions posted.

Also, we're trying to load the linux kernel into this system.
How are the folks out there doing that?  Via ftp?  Via a bootloader on the
2MB FLASH
chip on the board tied to /CS0?  What exactly?

I am using a high speed serial S-record downloader.  I guess I will
be posting the boot rom and the loader for the EST8260 when I get
a chance later this week.  I then load and flash a kernel the same
way.  I have some flash utilities that run from Linux and just reflash
kernels into different areas for testing.  I have just finished a
program to hack the zImage header so the VxWorks boot rom will load
it.  I only spent about half an hour, so it needs a little cleaning up,
but it seems to work.  I am hoping someone will provide a TFTP loader
for the code I post.......
