The MPC834x MDS was the first 834x system supported. Sorry, my fault, I wasn't clear. I was just referring to the fact that in addition to your source, the Denx tree also has the work they are doing on the TQM board that contains an 8349E. > However, if you are looking at 834x, I recommend you grab my u-boot tree > from kernel.org since it has support for booting the kernel with a flat > device tree.

Wolfgang Denx mentioned the TQM system, so I took a look in the Denx tree, and saw that their work was based on yours. I assumed your work was for a Freescale reference board, but didn't know which. Thanks for the clarification. Dave
