<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am new to this type of mailing list. Please let
me know if I step out of bounds.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Need help with configuring u-boot for our
MPC8245.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Processor has been running for a year with VxWorks.
Therefore we know it works.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Setup</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) VisionProbe with configuration
files.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2) We can erase flash and download new
programs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) I know the BDI2000 is popular but we own the
VisionProbe.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) Processor</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 266MHZ
Processor</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 66 MHZ
buss</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> PCI has an
LSI53C1010R on it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 8MByte
flash 64bit buss (AM29F160xB) 0xFF80_0000 to 0xFFFF_FFFF</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 256MB SRAM
64bit buss 0x0000_0000 to 0x1000_0000-1 (0x0FFF_FFFF)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> One serial
port works.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To date here is what I have done.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) Installed Eldk. I am able to compile any of the
specific boards. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2) Choose as a starting point: CPC45.h This
was because they discussed using 64bit buss for Flash</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) Edited the CPC45.h file, attempting to make
appropriate changes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) Ran make CPC45_config</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5) Ran make</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>6) Downloaded the files to our board.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> At 0xfff0_0100 I get the
U-boot id message</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Execution seems to start at
0xfff0_0100.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>7) Connect Hypertermial to our serial
port.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I get output but only
funny characters. Looks like a baud rate problem but I changed baud rates from
2400 to 57800 and still get funny chcracters.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is where I am. We are still novices at this.
We could be changing code for a long time before we get it right.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What I would like:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1) Any advice. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2) Anyone willing to configure u-boot for our
board? We of course can pay.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3) Insights on how to determine what setup function
might be wrong.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4) We do not want to configure the SCSI chip at
this time. We will never be use SCSI to boot a disk drive. We will use
linux drivers for the chip in question.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks in advance.</FONT></DIV>
