Hello,
Can anyone suggest a method to have U-Boot boot Linux from a hard drive on a PowerPC architecture?
I'm in the process of completing a port of U-Boot to the Motorola PrPMC800 which is uses a PowerPC MPC7410 processor. My goal is to have U-Boot boot Linux from a hard drive instead of from flash. I've just completed the PCI/IDE support for this. I thought I could have U-Boot load Lilo or Grub. But, it appears Lilo and Grub are specific to x86 architecture because they use x86 BIOS calls to function.
Thanks, Mark.
