Hi,
I'm still trying to boot LinucPPC on this board. Thanks to new kernel
images provided by G. Paubert in his site I could obtain some new
results (not a success but at least this time the boot is going a bit
further).
The board has no drive, so I tried two versions of the kernel image: the
initrd and the nfsroot, (this last try was to see if something different
happens, becauase I do not have a NFS root tree for the PPC).
When I boot the zImage.initrd-2.2.4 kernel I get these messages:

and here it freeze and I have t reset the board.
My questions are:
I have to give some parameter at the boot prompt?
And the ram disk image that the README said to be inside the file
initrd.gz
is still inside the kernel image or it must be loade from this file?
It seems quite strange to me also the message:

Why 2 CPU?
The results of the zImage.nfsroot boot was obiuvsly different:

My question are:
Is the way I gave the boot parameter (root=/dev/nfs) right?
I exported an empty /home/ppc directory on the same PC that I used as
tftp server, but how the board can recognize just this directory? And
what files I have to put in this directory?
Many thanks to everybody for the help!

You need a rarp or bootp server set up on the machine so that it will
provide your board config info after it gets past the SROM bug in the
driver. You can build a quick base system by grabbing the Debian "potato"
base tarball at
ftp://ftp.debian/org/pub/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-powerpc/2.1.8-1999-02-24/base2_2.tgz
Untar it into your nfsroot directory, remove the unconfigure.sh script
from /sbin (I believe), modify inittab to boot into single user mode, and
reboot your system. You may also want to set up the sysvinit link in the
rcS.d runlevel directory so that the nfsroot dir is remounted rw.

Ok, what does the SROM command under PPCBug return. There is a bug in the
setup of these.
You have to type SROM, answer Y to the first question and list all the
values until the the address 0x80. Then around address 0x20, there is
probably a byte which is 0x08 and should be 0x00, but I can't tell you the
exact address without the dump.

Because the OpenPIC in the Raven and Hawk support up to 2 CPUs. This does
not mean that they are installed however...

This is strange, it should be 25 MHz. I have got timing problems on my
board too... Going to investigate since it seems constant when it should
not.

You have to setup you /etc/bootptab entries and /etc/exports. Don't forget
to set the export as no_root_squash.

Hi,
Thanks to all your suggestion and help I finally get out from the kernel
cross-compilation; I obtained a zImage file that boot in the same manner
of the Gabriel Paubert images (i.e. still crash on the ethernet deriver,
but in the same way), so at least I can be confident that the
cross-compilation procedure is going right.
Next problem is to get the ethernet working: I tries to change the
ethernet setting as suggested; the output of the SROM command is this:

swapper/1
I tried also to apply the Matt Porter patch for dec21143 to my kernel
tree, but it didn't work (probably because it's based on kernel 2.2.5
and I'm using a 2.2.6 patched kernel).
Still I'm working on setting up the bootp server and to build the root
tree, but I don't think that this can cause the crash of the system.
Many thanks to everybody.
Bye

The rest looks ok.

No that one means autonegotiation of link parameters.

No. I can help you wit this too. And I hope we'll soon be wroking on the
VME side of the board once all these problems are solved.

Nope, that's the conntion type location 0x800 is AutoSense...don't change
that.

Use $22 (&034) 0300
This octet indicates PHY index and must start at zero.
