I wonder if somebody used IDE/ATAPI on MPC8548CDS. It has VIA VT82C686B chip on Arcadia motherboard that work just fine with no problems with Freescale's supplied 2.6.11 Linux kernel. It's a common chip with generic register layout etc. so stock common/cmd_ide.c should work once supplied with proper base address and offsets.
The problem is I've just started with that platform so I don't know yet how memory and I/O is mapped. I will be digging and I will grok it soon but it will take time. Can anybody point me in the right direction? I'm going to put Fedora on the thing and I would've liked to boot it off of IDE HDD rather than from Flash. That would make regular Fedora update mechanism work without additional steps for burning kernel/initFS to Flash... I would also like to enable a PCI/PCI-E videocard but that can wait, I'll have the platform groked by the time it come to that so I will be able to do it myself. Any help is highly appreciated... --- ****************************************************************** * [EMAIL PROTECTED] KOI8 Net < > The impossible we do immediately. * * Las Vegas NV, USA < > Miracles require 24-hour notice. * ****************************************************************** ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
