References: <391B220F.9838E70F@charter.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-linuxppc-embedded@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: What do you mean, exactly? How to get it to run stand-alone? The way I understand it, the 8xxROM code is designed to work stand-alone. Do you mean running with the ADI&MPC8bug connected? In that case, you could try reseting the ADS board without letting MPC8bug run its default configuration scripts (type "reset :ni" I believe). This will not initialize any of the on-chip registers. You might have to turn on the ADS board, start MPC8bug, shut off the ADS board, turn the ADS board back on again, then run "reset :ni" in order for this to work properly, since MPC8bug does a reset when it starts. This will make sure the registers are in their default state. Once you do that, you should be able to do a "go", and the CPU should start automatically at 0x0100. Remember though, MPC8bug doesn't do address translation, so it will have problems displaying memory locations once the MMU's have been enabled. "Dan A.
