Hi all,

I have a currently almost working ARCH=ppc linux-2.6.24 configuration for a
new mpc8540 board (except for a RTC chip connected to an i2c bus).

Knowing that ARCH=ppc will be removed, I try to make the ARCH=powerpc version
work, but that's not easy.

I have copied the mpc8540ads.dts file to a new dts file, and added the
following :

                        [EMAIL PROTECTED] {
        +                       #address-cells = <1>;
        +                       #size-cells = <0>;
                                device_type = "i2c";
                                compatible = "fsl-i2c";
                                reg = <3000 100>;
                                interrupts = <2b 2>;
                                interrupt-parent = <&mpic>;
                                dfsrr;
        +
        +                       [EMAIL PROTECTED] {
        +                               compatible = "stm,m41t81";
        +                               reg = <68>;
        +                       };
                        };

and I see in the boot log that my RTC chip is now working.


My root device is on a compact-flash connected to a PCI yenta chip from TI,
and this one is not working, altough it seems to be discovered :

        Yenta: CardBus bridge found at 0000:00:12.0 [0000:0000]
        Yenta: Using CSCINT to route CSC interrupts to PCI
        Yenta: Routing CardBus interrupts to PCI
        Yenta TI: socket 0000:00:12.0, mfunc 0x00001b22, devctl 0x64
        irq 18: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
        Call Trace:
        [cf813af0] [c00066c8] show_stack+0x3c/0x1bc (unreliable)
        [cf813b30] [c003c1ac] __report_bad_irq+0x38/0xcc
        [cf813b50] [c003c4c8] note_interrupt+0x288/0x2cc
        [cf813b80] [c003cc34] handle_fasteoi_irq+0x94/0xf8

but my boot finally fails with :

        VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(0,0)
        Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the
        available partitions:
        1f00       8192 mtdblock0 (driver?)
        Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs
        on unknown-block(0,0)

Is there an easy way to use values found in /proc or even in the sources
in my working ppc setup to put them in the dts file to make my new powerpc
configuration work ?

Thanks for listening

Philippe
