Hi,

Is a port to the Coldfire 5307 and/or 5407 in the works or is anyone 
interested in it?

My company is considering developing a new board based on either the 
5307 or 5407. I saw that Bernard Kuhn has ported to the MCF5272 and 
MFC5282 processors.

I'm willing to give a MFC5307/5407 port a shot but I am sort of a newbie 
at this so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Just to know where I'm coming from:

I a previous job I have created embedded Linux systems and toolchains, 
but my colleague created the hardware design, boot code, kernel port and 
kernel drivers.

I have written firmware for motorola, avr, pic and arm processors in 
both assembly and C. I have some knowledge of hardware design (basically 
needed to write effective firmware)

So as far as I can see my knowledge gap lies in between straight 
firmware and application systems.

I am eager to learn and if I am able to contribute something useful it 
would be my pleasure.

Best Regards

Alwin Leerling

Hi Alwin,

You can try using the ports for 547x/548x processors (check the
board/freescale/ directory).

Ciao

Ciao Luigi

Come sta?

Right, that is about the extend of Italian I know. Thanks for your 
response. I downloaded a U-boot version from SourceForce (version 1.1.6) 
not releasing it was an old version. Now installing git and trying to 
get a bit more up to date version and I'll have a look.

Best regards
