Hi All
I am using PPC 440GP processor on custom board. This board doesnt not have
Ethernet support and there is no rom monitor code in the board. Is it
possible to download the Linux image to the board using JTAG . If so what
type of image should I build.
Thanking you in advance.
Regards
Aman

You can download the kernel, but it will not run ;-)
The Linux kernel relies on a lot of initialization to be done by the
firmware - things like initializing and sizing the memory, passing
boot arguments etc.
I suggest you start porting PPCBoot.
Best regards,

The arch/ppc/boot/images/zvmlinux.* file is a standard ELF image.
Your tool should either allow you to load that format directly
or should accept a format to which it can be easily converted.

Hi
I have ported rom monitor code[Openbios from IBM] for my custom
board[PPC440GP Processor]. The custom board doesn't support ethernet. Now I
want to download a linux image to the RAM of my custom board. What linux
image I have to build to download to RAM using JTAG of Riscwatch Debugger .
Thanking you in advance
Regards
Aman

I have no idea. We use BDI2000's only.
