I've actually run Linux on a hardware that might be something like
yours, but it was 3 years ago now. A 2.2-kernel.
The board we used had a 860 and a Texas DSP + some kind of FPGA,
great for telecommunications...
I wrote a small piece of boot software that could be compiled to
be placed in the internal DPRAM by a BDM or be burned into flash.
The boot software then started a zImage from ram or from flash.
I would suggest you to burn a zImage.embedded into the flash.
