Hi Jakob,
I noticed on the embedded powerpc mailing list, that you are working w. linux on the Memec V2P20 FF1152 board.
I have one too and I'm given the task to get a linux up and running on it...
What kernel version are you using and where did you get the source ?. It seems to me that in the official source tree, there is only support for the Xilinx ML300 board - or am I missing something ?Montavista and MIND systems say they have a port for the memec board, but if an open source port exists, I'd prefer that.
Best regards,
Finn S. Nielsen

If you are speaking about 2.6 then you aren't missing anything.
Montavista and MIND systems say they have a port for the memec board, but if an open
MontaVista's code for memec is in linuxppc-2.4 tree.

We've used 2VP7-FG456 board with the P160 COMM module.
Best rewgards,

Hi Finn!
According to a mail contact we had with the CEO of Mind "this never
happened" even though several news flashes states that this is
accomplished. See Andreis mail about the Montavista one. What matters
however is the powerpc405 which sits at the core of both the Xilinx
ML300 and Memec FF1152 board and since these are the same (minus a few
bugs on the Memec side), so is the kernel.
I've resolved the issues I had in my earlier mail and now has an almost
stock kernel 2.6.11-rc4 running @400Mhz. As you will see, the big
challenge is about putting together a good initrd to get a useful system. :)
I'm attaching my .config, but be aware that I'm using a fairly
minimalistic system with debugging only via XMD and printouts on the
serial port so you might want to take a good look at it before you
compile. Change the values in
arch/ppc/platform/4xx/xparameters/xparameters.h to reflect your boards'
device addresses and comment out devices you do not use.
Hopefully, there will be some more general support for the Xilinx
Virtex-II Pro++ chips in the kernel, we just need to come up with a good
plan for it.
Cheers!
/Jakob
