Dear Rick, in message [ref] you wrote:
I am using ELDK to port linux to a simple MPC860T board. I use SMC1 to
connect to the serial port and as the console.But I can't go any further
because when i powerup,the console doesnot show any message.List my steps
here:
1. edit ~/.kermrc as what was shown in <Denx ppcboot and linux
Guide(tqm8xxl)>.
2. modify several line of 'TQM860L.h'.
3. modify my UPM table and register OR1/BR1 to OR4/BR4(my sdram uses
cs4) in the file tqm8xx.c.
4. bash>make distclean.
5. bash>make TQM860L_config.
7. bash>make all
8. use a flash programmer to burn the u-boot.bin to my boot flash.Only now it becomes clear that you are not talking about Linux at all. Your posting is off topic in the linuxppc-embedded mailing list. Chances for useful replies are much better in the u-boot-users mailing list instead. Chances for useful replies would be even better if you provided a little more information. "modify several line of ..." is not really a precise description of what you did. Porting U-Boot to new hardware requires more than just tweaking a line here and there. It will require both an in-depth understanding of the hardware and U-Boot.
It's my first time to build a embedded linux project,wish u can help me out.
Did you read the README that comes with U-Boot? Finally: did you order your BDI2000 yet? You will probably need it soon.
