For a start I would use the 8548 cds linker script unchanged, build your u-boot image, flash it to 0xfff80000 and single-step with your BDI.
Hi all, I'm stuck again. I can now single step and hit some breakpoints. However, I'm failing early in cpu/mpc85xx/start.S . I keep on getting:

0xfffff0c0 maps as cpu/mpc85xx/start.S, line 163:
162 163 0: lwzu r6,4(r5) 164 lwzu r7,4(r5)
Output from powerpc-linux-objdump on b-boot.bin:

When this happens, I seemingly can't read any registers or do any further analysis. I spent the last few days trying to develop the exact cause, but I'm getting inconsistent behavior from the bdi. The farthest I can go consistently is set a breakpoint this far on line 163.
The code on Line 163 happens after "bl tlb1_entry" , which calls my init.S . After trying a hundred times or so, once or twice I've been able to step further or set a slightly further breakpoint than line 163 - but not consistently. I've tried:
1) Doing 'ti' after reset, it gives 'Step timeout detected' at different locations on every run. 2) Taking out the init section of the bdi. 3) General tweaking of the init section in the bdi. 4) Making the jtag clock slower in the bdi config. 5) Making my tlb1_entry bare bones. 6) Using the cds tlb1_entry . 7) Flashing the cds code into my flash. 8) Setting the breakpoint much further, board_init_f , and typing go after reset.
Everything I've tried doesn't get me consistently past line 163 of cpu/mpc85xx/start.S. However, I've tried single stepping slightly before that and I've failed to single step consistently to line 163. So I'm having a hard time developing a pattern of failure. Any ideas on what I could try? I still haven't got as far as getting the serial port working. Thanks! Robert
