I have most simple ppc405gp board and need to port bootloader, and linux to
it.
there is no aditional hardware just integrated 8mb ram cpu, ethernet, and
one pci slot.
so I should remove everything from any other board code to port it.

FPGA , RTC is easy to remove from u-boot, but I dont know how remove them
from linux.
and RTC seems to be vital part to run linux. (I found somewhere that it is
nesecary to calculate bogomips)
so probably some special driver is nesecary.

OK, i will try to use CPCI4052 code.
