[Ppcboot-users] Porting RTLinux on IBM PPC 405


 Hi,

I am working on IBM PowerPC405. My work involves porting RTLinux to Power PC
405.
From some of the sources of RTLinux I understood that porting RTLinux on power
PC 405 is not possible, because first Linux
is not supporting to PowerPC405. If Linux would have support then RTLinux
changes is small part.
But when I was going through Power pc - Linux related site, I got information
that Linux is supporting to PowerPC405.

So Please I like to know more details about it.

Thanks in advance
Prasad

Vijay & Prasad,
I've been working with Linux on the 405GP for some time now,
it works well.  I've been using ppcboot for it as well.
Since you wrote this in to the ppcboot mailing list, I'll
assume that you know where and how to get ppcboot.

The Linux that I've been working with comes from
MontaVista Software (http://www.mvista.com/).
This is based on Frank Rowand's work (which in turn
is based on Grant Erickson's work) and some info on
it can be found at
http://dev.mvista.com/projects/405gp_status/main.html.

Re: [Ppcboot-users] [Question] question for make procedure...

you probably wanted to make TQM850L_config as against
TQM850_config.

look at the ppcboot/Makefile to see what rules are
available.

[Ppcboot-users] ppcboot Questions

 Dear Sir,
      I am a freshman of the development of embedded
system, and it is my honor to contact with you .
      I have already had a custom PBX board with a
embedded CPU named MPC823, and a monitor has already
been flashed into a EPROM on the board. 
      I'd like to ask you the following questions.
      1.In order to get a kernel image and let it run
on that board,I need a Linux OS with a right version.
When I used Redhat 6.0 and 6.1 Linux to make
ppcboot.0.4.4-pre1,I got the following error mesages:
      Makefile:24:***unterminated call to function
'shell' : missing '('. stop.
      But when I use Redhat 6.2 Linux to make
ppcboot.0.4.4-pre1,the message is something like the
following:

Make[1]:Entering directory '/ppcboot/ppc'
Make[1]:'.depend' is up to date.
            ...
Make[1]:Entering directory '/ppcboot/tools'
Make[1]:***No rule to make target 'crc32.c'needed by
'.depend'.*** stop.
Make[1]:Leaving directory '/ppcboot/tools'

     I do know the reason that I got so much error
messages.Did I use the wrong version? How can I make
changes to let it run well.

     2.Now I want to port my Linux software to my PBX

[Ppcboot-users] Bootcode for MPC750(Mastster) and MPC8260

Hi, everyone

Is there bootcode for a board using MPC750 and MPC8260 as master and slave
repectively ?
The board known as "Scout" uses such configuration.

Kim.

The Makefile in that old version of PPCBoot used  a  shell  construct
which  was  only  available in bash version 2.x, while RH 6.0 and 6.1
use an older version of bash. The Makefile has been fixed since,  and
works in RH-6.0 and 6.1, too.

It seems you are missing the symbolic link "crc32.c" in  the  "tools"
directory, which points to the C source fine in the "ppc" directory:

	-> ls -l tools/crc32.c

Oops, sorry. The DHCP daemon is in the "dhcp" RPM, of course.
