I am still struggling to make SPRUCE work with 2.6.24 arch/ppc. I think no
body had tested 2.6.x on SPRUCE. I think there is some issue with cpc700 pic
driver.
I feel it is better to move SPRUCE along with other arch/ppc boards to
arch/powerpc

Thanks,
Suresh

removal of arch/ppc in 2.6.27?

  LITE520052xx

This is in arch/powerpc

  XILINX_ML30040x
  XILINX_ML40340x

These are also supported in arch/powerpc; we just don't have .dts
files for the reference designs merged yet.

Cheers,

 MVME5100e6xx

I would very much like to see mvme5100 move to powerpc.

I'll help any way I can including trying to port it myself.

Is it significant that in arch/powerpc/platforms/prep/Kconfig
PPC_PREP depends on BROKEN ?
What are the implications of that?

Thanks,

Dwayne
