That's the problem. The 5200 was never completely supported in ARCH=ppc. You will need to switch to ARCH=powerpc (including all that new exciting flat device tree infrastructure) where the board should work. In short (using bootwrapper only for demonstration purposes, in the long run you want to use fdt aware infrastructure): export ARCH=powerpc make mpc5200_defconfig make zImage ls -l arch/powerpc/boot/cuImage.lite5200b -rw-rw-r-- 1 dzu dzu 1587892 Jun 4 18:40 arch/powerpc/boot/cuImage.lite5200b Note that lite5200b does not have its own config any more but uses a common config + an individual device tree (arch/powerpc/boot/dts/lite5200b.dts). The zImage target above does all the magic...
