Ah, I see. It looks like all that code was based on the 68k project,
which did not have a pic setup for the M2 class powerbooks, so it is
missing some info. Looks like you guys made some clever changes to
get things to work! Here is a link to where I uploaded some of the
'powermac M2' code for the powerbook 5300 and a few of the other
relevant files from the old apple.mklinux server that was pulled
down. If someone who is a better programmer than I am could take a
look at it, that would be great:
http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqncxc/code.zip
it should have all the hardware info needed to get things working. I
am in the process of checking the addresses against some disassembled
code, so if i can verify anything, I'll let everyone know...
here are a few links to some other resources that I found to be useful:
http://cvsgui.cvs.sourceforge.net/cvsgui/mac/Universal/Interfaces/
CIncludes/
(the project is completely unrelated to what we are doing here, but
it includes a lot of code from apple with some relevant information
like low memory locations and gestalt calls and other very low-level
code for the macos kernel... check the other directories as well,but
beware... 90% of the files are not helpful)
and here are some apple tech notes that are no longer on their server:
