Any clues on differences b/w ppc750 and mpc750. I have a PPC750 board but a
MPC750 BSP, could I use this BSP

As the name BSP (= BOARD support package) suggests a BSP  deals  with
the special features of a board, not with a specific processor model.
You  cannot  use  a  BSP  for  one  board on another, different board
without  making  certain  modifications  (a  process   often   called
"porting")  -  no  matter  if the two bards use the same processor or
not. [Well, it may be easier if both use the same CPU.]

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
