[caixupeng]

I have a 440GP board (ebony) , and develop a PrPMC board also.
they are running vxworks, but I want port linux to it .

who can guide me?

by the way , I can't access ppcboot.sourceforge.net.
Is there another mirror site ?

As you are already used to paying money I suggest paying a consultant a lot
of MONEY and let him do it for you.  I'll be happy to do the job for the
right price :):):):):):):):):):):)

I would like to add a couple of extra clauses to one of your statements.
I'm not against new people asking questions but...

Study the ebony port and make a new one.  Ask questions here when
you get stumped.

AND YOU CANNOT FIND THE ANSWER AFTER SEARCHING THE MAILING LISTS, ASKED YOUR
WORKMATES, AND CHECKED THAT THE LIST YOU WANT TO ASK THE QUESTION ON IS THE
CORRECT LIST.


Sorry for shouting but
I would maybe read a few more e-mail if this were so.


Regards,
Rod

Get yourself copies of "Understanding the Linux Kernel" and
"Linux Device Drivers 2nd Edition".

Get kernel source, http://penguinppc.org/dev/kernel.shtml

Study the ebony port and make a new one.  Ask questions here when
you get stumped.

Alternatively, you can pay a consultant/contractor/vendor for support
or enablement services if you are more interested in working on the
end application that will make you money. :)

This is Linux Country. On a quiet night, you can hear Windows reboot.
