I don't need a "real" debugger (maybe = an > interface to gdb), just something to write the flash, so u-boot comes up. I haven't tried it, but a Macraigor USB Wiggler supports the MPC5200 and it's $250. http://www.macraigor.com/cpus.htm That should be enough to write uboot into RAM. Once uboot is in RAM you can use it to write the flash. Let me know if you try it and it works. > > Thanks for any help, > Albrecht. > > _______________________________________________ > Linuxppc-embedded mailing list > Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org > https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded > > --=20 Jon Smirl jonsmirl@gmail.com
