Hi All,

Is the any MPC8323RDB BSP on Kernel 2.4? I have the BSP on Kernel 2.6
provided by Freescale. Unfortunate we are using Kernel2.4. Is there
any exist BSP of this board on Kernel2.4? Or a BSP of similar board on
Kernel2.4?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Generally speaking, most of these more modern eval boards from
Freescale have been supported only since post 2.6.15 or so, and as
such are implemented as arch/powerpc and not the older/obsolete
arch/ppc (as what was used in 2.4).   Trying to graft them onto a
2.4 kernel sounds like a lot of wasted cycles to me.  You may have
to revisit your reasoning for requiring a 2.4 kernel.

Paul.
