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,
