Hi,
I must try RTnet perf on powerpc embeded system
System config :
MPC8245 EtherExpress 100
The system boot via NFS with bootp so I have to built-in ethernet driver on kernel
Sounds tricky.
Can I try to boot with a initrd image and load the RT ethernet module and then boot via nfs ? or can I built-in RT ethernet into my kernel ?
Even if you were able to built the RT-driver into your kernel, it would not be usable as a normal NIC as long as the realtime network is not running. A "realtime" boot over a RTnet segment would require significant extensions to RTnet and RTAI (the latter would also be required to become built-in).
Do you have the chance to boot your system over Etherboot with TFTP and then switch it over to a realtime network segment? This is how I bring up my test boxes.
