I want to run linuxppc on a custom MPC860 PowerQuiccMH board with: *64 Mo DRAM *4 Mo FLASH ROM *Ethernet is supported on SCC1 *a serial port on the SCC4 I'm working on a PII 400 computer with the linux-2.2.10 release. My cross compiler is gcc-2.7.x and I found an embedded-2.2.5 directory on the net (for the linuxppc sources) but I have some problem with the compilation. I want to import also a linuxppc kernel release on my board, and after create a serveur (ethernet, video and internet if necessary) from this board. I'm not sure which way I must follow: - Create a minimal root file system (on the flash memory) for after booting the embedded board with linux (must I write a bootloader and configure the flash ?) - Booting (via ethernet or another protocole) with a precompiled linuxppc kernel. I's that correct? If yes could you tell me please how I must process or if you have another easier solution? I didn't seen the configuration scripts modified (for compiling the kernel) for MPC860 on the .config and makefile; have you worked on this subject recently? Thanks for your help and Have a good Day.
