Hi Matthias, I am going to use u-boot alone for my development. Which debugger is suitable for debugging u-boot and initial board bringup activity? My choice is BDI2000. Is it ok.
Yes. As I said. But I never used it to debug u-boot together together with GDB. After the serial console was up I used printf-like debugging. And before that point I could live quite good with simple BDI commands.
Whether source level debugging is possible with BDI2000?
Also tell me what toolchains need to be used. Is ELDK supports?
I don't know. I used a toolchain which I build myself using crosstools-ng (see http://freshmeat.net/projects/crosstool-ng/)
Whether the video driver is available on u-boot ?
Check my patch series and you will see ;-)
I will check and tell this.

Hi Matthias, We are using MB86R01 processor in our design. We just want to know what emulator/debugger can be used for initial board bring-up activity and also whether the latest u-boot(2010.03) is supporting this processor ?
I recently posted a patch series adding support for MB86R01 to u-boot. I did not receive any comments on V2 so I thinks its more or less fine and I hope it will be merged within the upcoming merge window.
See http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-May/071097.html for the initial mail of the patch series.
I am using a BDI2000 (http://www.abatron.ch/products/bdi-family.html) for initial flash programming. A Segger JLink (http://www.segger.com/cms/jlink.html) works also.
Hope this helped.
Matthias
