Johnson (ACD)" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Subject: MPC5200 JTAG/BDM Flash Burning List-Id: Linux on Embedded PowerPC Developers Mail List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , I'm working on a custom MPC5200 board based heavily on the IceCube design from Motorola/Freescale. We plan to use the u-boot bootloader. I'm looking for a tool to allow us to burn u-boot into the flash memory on new board (with all flash devices unprogrammed). Ideally, I'd like something like the Jflash-linux tool used with StrongARM linux, or a stand-along linux tool that lets us burn the memory. Both the "MPCBDM" and "bdm4gdb" projects haven't been updated for years. The BDM-Tools project is more active, but only seems to support 68k/Coldfire processors. The 5200lite "IceCube" demo board came with a Metrowerks "Wiretap" BDM interface, and a Green Hills "Slingshot" BDM module, but these seems to require a large (and expensive) windows based "Development environment" which is far more than we need. Are there linux based drivers for either of these? We may have to write our own JTAG based pin-wiggler, but this solution tends to be extremely slow.
