This processor is described as an e300c2 core. I found that e300c2 is listed in the arch/powerpc/kernel/cputypes.c file. Does this mean that it is supported, or is that just a place holder? If it is supported (as a core) what about the peripherals built into the MPC8321 are they likely to be supported? How about Flash support, or is this very board dependant? Any ideas? David

Yes, it is supported.

The more commonly used ones should be.
How about Flash support, or is this very board dependant?
Yes, flash (I assume you mean NOR) should work. See the localbus nodes in existing device trees. -Scott
