Hi, At some point I am going to have to port the Linux from DVEVM to our own hardware. I assume this involves remaking the uboot and kernel to suit the target hardware
Right.
(which we are trying to keep as close to DVEVM as possible, but with bits added, and some bits missing). It is intended that the system will boot from NOR flash, and then load the rest from either CF or SD memory. Can anyone point me to documentation describing the procedure for how to port/remake both parts (uboot & kernel).
It'll be pretty much like any other U-Boot and Linux ports. For U-Boot the best info is on the distribution site (denx.de); the top-level directory's "README" has extensive porting info. For Linux, there is tons of info out there. It's probably best to search for ARM-specific guides / how-to's because there tend to be some architec- ture specific low-level details (I've done a PowerPC port but haven't yet done ARM).
