[U-Boot] SAAT support in U-Boot ppc4xx

[renjith kumar]

Dear Wolfgang Denk,

I have tried with Latest u-boot. ( 2009.03-rc1-00000-g00cc559 ).
Still not out of trouble.

Here the condition is worse. It gives machine Check Exception and reboots,
repeatedly.
Some times hangs at "PCi Scan Display" , else after Displaying *"Net:   No
ethernet found* " .

The case is same even if there's no PCI card inserted. So it like some
modification not complete.
Any suggestion is appreciated. Mine is a Sequoia board with 2 PCI slts.
(I am testing with the Nand-Booting Option, as I dont have a flash
programmer for NOR) .

In the old version , I was getting the u-boot prompt, but not always.
The new U-Boot hangs as follows.


U-Boot 2009.03-rc1-00000-g00cc559 (Feb 27 2009 - 16:53:12)

CPU:   AMCC PowerPC 440EPx Rev. A at 528 MHz (PLB=132, OPB=66, EBC=66 MHz)
       Security/Kasumi support
       Bootstrap Option H - Boot ROM Location I2C (Addr 0x52)
       Internal PCI arbiter enabled, PCI async ext clock used
       32 kB I-Cache 32 kB D-Cache
Board: Sequoia - AMCC PPC440EPx Evaluation Board, Rev. F, PCI=66 MHz
I2C:   ready
DTT:   1 is 26 C
DRAM:  256 MB
FLASH: 64 MB
NAND:  32 MiB
*** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment

PCI:   Bus Dev VenId DevId Class Int
USB:   Host(int phy) Device(ext phy)
Net:   No ethernet found.


Any suggestion is appreciated.
Has anybody got the SATA-PCI working before on PowerPC, or similar
situation.

Ren
