We are trying to wade our way through the various processor choices and
options available for PPC on Linux.

One of our requirements is to be able to run the same binary image across
a range of systems. The image can not change just because the processor
does.

We are currently looking at the 405GPX, 8250, 8245, and PowerQUIC III.

What do you mean with "image"?

Kernel Image? Application image (for example ramdisk  with  libraries
and application binaries)? Both combined?

Both combined. A bzImage and RAM disk loaded off the boot media (Flash).
