We're running U-Boot 1.3.0 and creating the device tree with something like . dtc -f -b 0 -I dts -O dtb -R 8 -S 0x3000 -o mpc8610_hpcd.dtb mpc8610_hpcd.dts (I have no idea what those arguments are for but they were passed to us by John Rigby for the MPC5121e board. In any case, making a dtb with just -I dts -O dtb -o blah.dtb blah.dts gives us exactly the same result so I don't think it is any fault of that). Any clues why we would get this? I've had the same problem with my MPC8641D but since I broke it last week I've not had a chance to actually test it since. -- Matt Sealey Genesi, Manager, Developer Relations
