Hello,
i try to get linux running on a board with a MPC8240 CPU (own board
design).
In the file mm/init.c there is comment that the 8xx CPUs has no BATs, but
the MPC8240 has BATs and i want to use them.
Is it wrong to select CONFIG_8xx for a MPC8240 CPU ?
I know that the sandpoint board or one of them also uses a MPC8240 but i
don't know if CONFIG_8xx is used for that sandpoint board.
Regards
Mathias

Absolutely. The 8240 is a 603e + MPC107-like bridge. The
6xx/7xx/74xx/82xx choice is the correct platform option.

An 8240 is one of many PPMC options on the Sandpoint, the F1 port has an
8240 as well.

Yes, it is.....

The 8240 is a CHRP/60x configuration. Just select a 60x processor,
configure PCI, and your board peripherals. Use the Sandpoint setup
as an example for your board configuration. Any 8240 board should
be running Linux in just a couple of hours.........
