Dear Matthias,

MPC5200 support known to be broken in these two.

linux-2.6-denx-git (see above)

Does not exist...

linuxppc_2_4_mpc5200 (see above)

Is NOT a git repository and marked as obsolete.

The only stable tree we offer  for  5200  is  the  linuxppc_2_4_devel
tree.

I copied the file arch/ppc/configs/lite5200_defconfig to .config, and
tried the following one:
make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- uImage

That's not the official way to build images.

oh, sry I played with crosscompiling the firt time, it would be a
pleasure for me if you could correct me.

Read the README, and probably the DULG. You missed at leat the  "make
oldconfig" step which is essential.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

It is ?

I don't know about the 2.6-denx, but the stock 2.6.15 should work just fine.
What's wrong with it ? (except it misses some drivers ... it should compile
and boot just fine)
