At this time I am just looking to see what kind of operating systems these
chips can run. I think the first step to run Linux would be that the MMU
and serial console starts to work then maybe I would check how the PF_CAN
interface ( http://lwn.net/Articles/253425/ ) would work on this device
if a FlexCAN2 driver is available.

Is there any other powerpc port with e200z6 core?
