Ales, Hmmmm... No, I've not done anything with the Avnet MM board. I may = have responded to somebody who was working with that board on this list. = We work a lot with PLB TEMAC and MV Linux, but do very little with GSRD = (it's a reference design that's not officially supported through the = EDK). On the surface, I don't think I can help much here, but feel free = to directly send me a more detailed email and maybe I can point you to = someone who can help. -Rick -----Original Message----- From: linuxppc-embedded-bounces+moleres=3Dxilinx.com@ozlabs.org = [mailto:linuxppc-embedded-bounces+moleres=3Dxilinx.com@ozlabs.org] On = Behalf Of Ale=B9 Gorkic Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 7:13 AM To: linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org Subject: re:Linux on Virtex4 Hi Rick, I saw on linuxppc-embedded at ozlabs.org that you are trying to port (or = better you did) monta vista linux to Avnet's V4FX Mini-Module. I will = try to deal with the same thing. My design is basically the same: all = features of MM incorporated in CoreConnect style architecture. I also = tried with Multi Port Memory Controller (MPMC2) and ported (memory = works, but for LAN I still need phy datasheet) the Gigabit System = Reference Design (GSRD2) to Mini-Module. By using the MPMC2 memory core you can connect PPC directly to memory = using two PLBs (data and instruction separated). This way you might = solve the CPU cache errata. The problem with MPMC2 is that it consumes A = LOT of BRAM and logic. I tried to build a full featured system, but = V4FX12 lacks logic for the purpose. Is there a way that you can help me with running MV linux on my system?
