Message-ID: <409105C7.8030007@fh-landshut.de> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Hello! I have a MVME5500 board from Motorola, and want to boot it with U-boot. It's netbooting okay with the motload, and have a fully working Linux kernel for it, but I want to boot from flash so I guess I need a better bootloader (don't know why they dropped romboot). ;) The MVME5500 features (among other stuff) a Marvell GT64260B system controller and a Motorola 7455 PowerPC. As I have seen from the release, U-Boot is supporting the processor, and similar system controllers, so I guess I have to add support for the Marvell controller and add a config. How can I do this? As I've read people are using Linux code to ease development, so I guess I could reuse code from the kernel for full Marvell support? Will that and a config file suffice, or what else will be needed? Thanks in advance, Oliver Korpilla
