Srideep, I have never used the BDI 2000 with the MPC8272, however, I can tell you that configuring your emulator for your specific board, if the manufacturer does not provide a *verified* configuration for it, is something that takes some time and a few variables to tweak. Maybe you can expect to find a configuration ready made for some Motorola prototype board like the ADS 8272, *but* it would be a mistake to assume that that maps directly to your hardware in a workable manner. Bottom line, you need to know exactly what all of the emulator knobs are, and, if this is new hardware, keep in mind that it [the new hardware] could be malfunctioning. Do not assume the hardware is operating as a reliable computer unless you have positive proof that is the case - my personal experience is that I tried to make an emulator work on hardware that someone above me kept insisting "had to be working" - which was not the case. I got plenty of frustration and nothing to show for it - I should have defended the case that the hardware was not working much harder than I did 8) Anyway.. I am digressing. How is your BDI 2000 behaving ? I was using an "Embedded Toolsmiths" emulator, by the way. -f On Wed, 2005-10-12 at 17:14 +0530, srideep.devireddy@wipro.com wrote:
Hi , I am srideep , we have problem in programming flash on MPC 8272 ADS file using BDI 2000 with linux as host. As I am new to this I need your help in this regard. We have connected the BDI2000 to MPC8272ADS board. We are working on linux & I have attached configuration file for 8272 ADS board . BDI 2000 could recognize the processor type. But when we try to program the flash (with uboot binary image ) at location 0xff800000 on MPC 8272ADS evaluation board, it failed to program, We tried to unlock and do the same but still left with the same error. But when we tried to program in any other location it programmed but it doesnt boot . Can you kindly send us the working configuration file.
