Okay, im really blind i think, so i started again :

- 2.6.22 kernel from kernel.org
- cp /arch/ppc/configs/ml300_defconfig .config
- edit Makefile to use ARCH=3Dppc and CROSS_COMPILE=3Dpowerpc-405-linux-g=

nu-

- copy xparams
- make menuconfig -> no SYSACE blockdevice :((( *aaaaargh*

grant@trillian:~/linux-hacking/linux-2.6$ grep SYSACE drivers/block/Kconfig=
 -A 6
config XILINX_SYSACE
        tristate "Xilinx SystemACE support"
        depends on 4xx
        help
          Include support for the Xilinx SystemACE CompactFlash interface

i will try the grant kernel now :)

You've got 2 choices:
1. use the new sysace driver; it's already in mainline.  The new
driver is faster, but it doesn't handle hotswap of the CF card (yet=

But where in menuconfig could i find the sysace driver ? i'm blind, =

Which version of kernel are you using?  The new sysace driver was
merged into 2.6.22

linux-2.6.22.5

Should be under drivers->block devices then.

2. use the EDK driver; easiest way is to use my tree which already =

it merged:  http://git.secretlab.ca

i made an EDK update and now i have the linux_2_2 os in the software
options. the bsp with all drivers is generated.
and now ?
 - copy to kernel tree
 - use the xmake  to build the kernel, or make ?

Grant Likely [off-list ref]
Don't use EDK to build you're kernel.  It's too fragile and you need
to use the *exact* version of kernel that EDK expects.  You're better
off to manually copy the xparams file from the generated BSP.  (ie.
Don't let EDK know where your real kernel source tree is)

wuh ? i dont need all the driver from the generatet bsp files ? what
about the gpios and leds  ?

Most drivers are already in my tree; any that are missing you can copy
over manually.

i compile the kernel with a self made cross toolchain, not with the ed=

k.

until now i copied the bsp files into the kernel tree (modfied some
defines) und compile with "make zImage". But know with the linux_2_6
option there is some more stuff in the bsp directory and i don't know
what to do with :)

and why is there no dokumentation :)

Care to write some?

huh, not really :)
im just a little newbie

best way to learn.  :-)
