Hi,
I need some help in booting linux on broadcom bmw( MPC8245 - KAHLUA2)board.
The board has the vxWork boot loader, can i boot linux with this boot loader?
Should I go for CFE provided by Broacom. or
Should I go for u-boot as it supports my board.
Please tell me about shadow flasing so that I can have a headstart.
Thanks and Regards,
Aashis

I would recommend u-boot. You can probably boot CFE if you want, but
I found u-boot to be better. I've used that board quite a bit in the
past and mostly booted u-boot/linux using the 2MB flash instead of the
512MB one. You will want to make sure you have some kind of flash
programmer before you start wiping out what is on there, but once you
get that working you should be fine.
