I built the Timesys Linux for the 850 and ran it on a LICC_E, it booted into
the initrd just fine.

Subject: Embedded Planet RPX LICC_E board and Timesys



I am currently working on a research project involving
the RPX MPC850SR LICC_E board from Embedded Planet.

I tried the BSP provided by Timesys for the 850
but after tftping the image to the board and
'go' nothing happened.  I spoke to the reps from
timesys and embedded planet and found that the
850 BSP was compiled for the LITE_CW versions of the
Embedded Planet boards.  These differed due to the
existence of NVRAM and an RTC.

I recompiled the kernel using several different configurations
and was able to get the kernel to boot when the NVRAM option
was turned off.  I can boot the kernel and load the NFS
root with the initrd and ramdisk options turned off but
when I enable these options, the kernel stops booting at
the ramdisk creation.

Can anyone provide any insight about this problem?

Thank You
