My target hardware is a MPC5200 on a TQ STK52xx. I am developing in a Linked Setup with ELDK 3.1.1 under a Debian Linux (Release 2.6.18-4-686 ; gcc 4.1.2). The whole ELDK was already used in a former project with identical hardware and some early tests I ran showed that it works fine (as far as I can see). My goal is to get a real time Linux OS running on the target (preferably Xenomai) and establish a RT ethernet connection with a identical hardware setup (planning to use RTnet). But I am somehow stuck in the first place for I can't get the kernel built: I tried quite a number of Kernel-Xenomai-Adeos-Version-combinations in the past four days without any actual success. Yesterday I downloaded the Linuxppc_2_4_develop-sources from the GIT repository of the DENX site and set them to the exact point where the Adeos-Patch coming along with Xenomai 2.4.2 is build for (commit # ). The patch worked fine (ran trough), I configured the kernel and built the dependencies, but I am still unable to crosscompile the kernel and am also slowly running out of ideas. I am relatively new to this part of the software world, so forgive me for my maybe basic questions: I found no explicit information on the web, whether Xenomai can be run on my specific target at all: Has anyone tried or knows something about that? Or where could I check whether it is (besides asking TQ of course)? Maybe the better way would be trying with RTAI? Are there any known oddities of the STK52xx and/or MPC5200? Do I have to adapt my ELDK in any further way to get things going and using the DENX-sources (okay I guess this is hard to say without detailed information about my ELDK setup...)? Any other helpful experience, hints or tricks? Thanks & Greetings, Thomas
