I built the Timesys Linux for the 850 and ran it on a LICC_E, it booted into the initrd just fine.
-----Original Message----- From: Donald MacArthur [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 06, 2002 7:25 AM To: linuxppc-embedded at lists.linuxppc.org Subject: Embedded Planet RPX LICC_E board and Timesys I am currently working on a research project involving the RPX MPC850SR LICC_E board from Embedded Planet. I tried the BSP provided by Timesys for the 850 but after tftping the image to the board and 'go' nothing happened. I spoke to the reps from timesys and embedded planet and found that the 850 BSP was compiled for the LITE_CW versions of the Embedded Planet boards. These differed due to the existence of NVRAM and an RTC. I recompiled the kernel using several different configurations and was able to get the kernel to boot when the NVRAM option was turned off. I can boot the kernel and load the NFS root with the initrd and ramdisk options turned off but when I enable these options, the kernel stops booting at the ramdisk creation. Can anyone provide any insight about this problem? Thank You Donald MacArthur dmacarth at ufl.edu ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
