RE: I2C RTC causes boot delay...

quoted

You may also want to add an "I2C reset sequence" in your firmware/kernel
if your I2C clock gets stuck and don't respond(can happen if reset/power down while
reading the RTC). Look in u-boot for details.

Yeah. I know. I should put into PPCBoot/U-Boot.
But in the docs it says it's only for SOFT_I2C aka bitbang!
So
a) can I toggle the pins using GPIO and still use HARD_I2C? or
b) can I use SOFT_I2C in PPCBoot and CPM I2C (8xx-algo) under linux?

You can do alt. b(I do, NP). Maybe it's possible to make HW I2C do
the same, but I havn't checked.
