Hi all,
sorry for the probably OT question but I hope to find here the experts at booting the linux kernel. I've got a proprietary board with MPC8280 and U-Boot 1.1.1. If I boot the kernel (2.4.24 from ELDK3.0), it crashes in m8260_init_IRQ. I guess there is the first access to IMMR area which launches a "Data store translation miss" exception. The BAT registers seem to be missconfigured.
It would be fine if anyone could point me to 1. where the kernel configures the BAT registers and 2. where I can read about how the kernel uses the MMU.
Thanks in advance, Oliver
some additional info:

What are DBAT0/1x good for?
