Hi Wolfgang,

Have you had a chance to test my merged patch?  Any bug fixes?  I don't
think it's quite ready for linuxppc_2_4_devel, though it's close.

Per your suggestion above, I created
bk://source.mvista.com/linuxppc_2_4_mpc5200

It incorporates my merged patch with the following changes from the
discussion in this thread:
	o s/CONFIG_5XXX/CONFIG_PPC_5xxx/
	o s/i2c-algo-m5xxx.c/i2c-algo-ppc_5xxx.c/
	o s/UBoot/U-Boot/
	o s/M?5[xX][xX][xX]/MPC5xxx/
	o s/m?5[xX][xX][xX]/mpc5xxx/
	o changed default CONFIG_MPC5xxx_FLASH_SIZE to 0x1000000

I think the name changes are a definite improvement.  Thanks to all
for the input.

Please try this new tree and submit patches against it.

Thank you,
-Dale Farnsworth
