Re: Kernel 2.6.x to MPC8540/Microsys Board

In message [ref] you wrote:

Now I 've tried the official 2.6.10 Kernel and (cross-)compiled it
within ELDK 3.1 (btw: is there any difference in between ppc_6xx- and 
ppc_82xx- ?) which works fine, too.

ppc_82xx is a symbolic link ppc_6xx

Which is the best Kernel source tree to start porting 2.6.x to the pm854 
platform? I would prefer to stuck with the official sources. Is that a 
good idea?

Yes.

Is it a good idea to just 'copy' the pm854 platform specific files (PCI 
  initialization and some MTD driver options) to the 2.6.10 tree and see
how it works?

Copy from where? from 2.4? No.
