My PQ2FADS-ZU is having MPC8280 onboard. Which 2.6.10 source tree do you use to run on your MPC8248 board? I have downloaded 2.6.14.4 from kernel.org and I don't find *exact* _defconfig for MPC8280 or PQ2FADS-ZU. I guess I would start with something close but it will need some time and effort to customize the config file and perhaps some changes to the source tree before I could successfully boot the kernel...?
