Dear Bill, in message [ref] you wrote:
I'm new to embedded PPC Linux. Does anyone have a link to a good webpage explaining how to make a ramdisk- or flash-based CPU boot from the rebuilt kernel image I have? This is a Motorola MCIP805 CPU.
See http://www.denx.de/doc/TQM8xxL/ for an example, allthough for a different board. To build a ramdisk image you could use our SELF package as a starting point, see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/LinuxPPC/usr/src/SELF/ BTW: maybe the IPHASE4539 config option is a bit familiar to you :-) Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-4596-87 Fax: (+49)-8142-4596-88 Email: wd@denx.de Heavier than air flying machines are impossible. -- Lord Kelvin, President, Royal Society, c. 1895 ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
