[U-Boot-Users] flashing u-boot image onto mpc855 board

[Ryan Wilkins]

MPCBDM.  Support for it is built into gdb in the current release of 
ELDK.

MPCBDM uses the parallel port and a simple circuit that you will need 
to build.

I use it.  It is slow and flakey especially for Intel flash chips.  I'm 
sure the BDI2000 would be much nicer and much faster but for the 
occasional flashing that I do, it's just not worth it.

Email me off list if you want my Flash.dev file for the Intel 28F320J5 
and 28F640J5 chips.
