Recently got a hold of a Katana 752i board. I was able to dump the boot memory and it shows up as:
PPCBoot 1.2.0 (May 30 2006 - 12:54:57)1.5s
In the Katana 752i user manual however, it shows console output as:
PPCBoot 1.2.0 (Oct 31 2007 - 12:52:52)1.7s CPU: 750GX v1.2 @ 900 MHz Board: Katana752i BusHz: 200000000 I2C: ready DRAM: 512MB DDR SDRAM in slot 0 VM485L6523C-CC Early setup ECC (Clearing..) 512 MB Reserving 32MB for EDNR at 0x1e000000 FLASH: [512kB@f8000000] [32MB@e8000000] [32MB@ea000000] 64.5 MB cPCI: Enabled Remap Addr: 0x80000000 Window: 0x1000000 PCI: Bus Host Waiting For EREADY ('q' to exit w/o enum). [...]
The board is running a PPCBoot image that is 1.5 years behind what the manual has. *sigh* There are no fault lights and there are link lights for the Ethernet ports, but no serial console output. My BDI2000 shows it stuck in a loop waiting for something. In the user guide, Emerson says the code is GPL, but none of their Internet domains work anymore. Any chance someone has a copy of the PPCBoot that ran on their hardware? Older versions of the Linux kernel supported this board. I have been going through U-Boot git, but am having no success in finding code. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
