You are correct - the Cogent platform is a modular system - different motherboard and cpu module combinations, and the motherboards have varying I/O capabilities (serial, flash, ethernet, pci, video, ...) as do the cpu modules - I like the platform a lot, but the ppcboot port is probably unnecessarily complicated for most other platforms. >Are there other boards using 8260 CPU which can meet the following requiremen >ts: > 1 Initialize CPU core registers , SDRAM, MMU,SIU, CPM > 2 Initialize Serial Port and Network (SMC , FCC). >3 Download kernel from tftp server or load kernel from on-board flash ? Use the "hymod" port as a starting point - but it's probably best to create your own port. BTW, this question probably should have been asked on the ppcboot-users mailing list on lists.sourceforge.net - this list is for Linux/PPC embedded systems questions. Cheers!
