In linux-: make ads8260_config make oldconfig Also, I suggest you read the DULG wiki on using linux with u-boot in PPC environments.

Adjust the YOURBOARD8260.h to fit your needs. (If you are not a HW designer this will definitely take you some time) Added a new directory board/yourboard8260 copied the following files from board/mpc8266ads to board/fox8275: config.mk flash.c Makefile mpc8260ads.c -> yourboard8260.c u-boot.lds Changed the files to fit the your board. Changed the main Makefile to support a new target > YOURBOARD8260_config: unconfig > @./mkconfig $(@:_config=) ppc mpc8260 yourboard8260 good luck
