I am totally aware of it.  It will be fixed shortly.


Anyways, I noticed that measure_gclk is using timer 2 for frequency
measurement.  Appendix H in the Motorola MPC866 manual says timer 1 and 2
are removed from the MPC852T.  Although it still works on my board, it may
not work over the temperature.  I'm considering adding an if def block to
use timer 3 instead.  Would you care to consider this patch?

I am considering submitting a patch for our custom board.  This may be a
good time for me to get accustomed to the generally accepted rules.

Regards,

David Ho

You are aware that this just hides the problem instead of fixing it?

Do NOT continue. Go one step back and fix the RAM init problem.
