I am designing a embedded board based on MPC852T CPU. I want to know which
boards supportted by U-Boot utilized this CPU. I have read the readme file
Try to use grep, for example like this:
$ grep -l MPC852 include/configs/*
...
of U-Boot and copy the relative description about PPC CPUs supportted and
pasted below:
Well, the README is documentation and as such supposed to be helful
in general, but without ever claiming to be complete. The only true
reference is the source code.

In this description, it seems that MPC852T cpu is not supportted. Is it
right? And which one will be my ideal prototype for porting? Thanks!
There are a number of 852 based boards - but we cannot know which
micht be close to your board (especially since we know nothing about
your board).
Best regards,

The connection between the language in which we think/program and the
problems and solutions we can imagine is very close. For this  reason
restricting  language  features  with  the intent of eliminating pro-
grammer errors is at best dangerous.
