All,

Has anybody had any luck getting PCMCIA to work on an MPC860?

I have a custom MPC860 board, with a single PCMCIA socket connected to Slot B.  
This is what I have
so far done:

1.
Downloaded pcmcia-cs-3.2.0.tar.gz
2.
Added board specific definitions in modules/m8xx_pcmcia.c for
                hardware_enable()
                hardware_disable()
                voltage_set()
                socket_get()
3.
Cross compiled for the 8xx.
4.
In my kernel (linux-2.4.4-2001-11-24 from Denx) I added the following lines
                include/asm-ppc/<board>.h:
                        /* define IO_BASE for pcmcia */
                        #define _IO_BASE 0x80000000
                        #define _IO_BASE_SIZE (1024*64)
                arch/ppc/mm/init.c:
                        void __init MMU_init(void) {
                        ...
                        ioremap(_IO_BASE,_IO_BASE_SIZE);


        ...as suggested by Magnus Damm in
        http://lists.linuxppc.org/linuxppc-embedded/200005/msg00227.html


HOWEVER,

5.      When I boot my board with a Flash card in the PCMCIA slot, and I run:
        /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia start
        I find that ide_cs.o causes an Oops when it calls ide_register().  
"cardctl status"
        and "cardctl ident" work though.


Can anybody suggest what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Alex
