Subject: Serial problem with MPC8241-based board
Date: Sun, 03 Sep 2006 17:36:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44FAF68F.1080206@uid0.hu> (raw)
Hi all,
I've recently acquired an Allnet 6250 NAS, which has an MPC8241-based
board. Since its GPL tarball is not available fully, I began to build a
toolchain based on gcc-3.4.6 and binutils-2.16.1, and an up-to-date
kernel for it. PPCboot states that this is a Sandpoint 8241 Unity board,
so the platforms/sandpoint.* was chosen as a starting point, however,
after rewriting the irq and ioport values in sandpoint.h to the ones
(irq 137, ioport 0x80004500), no output came out of the serial port.
After a few days of tweaking around with variables is sandpoint.h, a
google session revealed that this board is 99% the same as the Buffalo
Linkstation's is, which has a 2.6.x port also, but those kernels are
also failing to display any output.
Can anyone shed some light on what points should I check and what may I
have done wrong?
Regards,
Zoltan HERPAI
