RE: [U-Boot-Users] PPC440GX reset command doesn't work

Try putting a scope/logic analyzer on your SYSRESET* line to see if it is getting pulled down when you try to reset from U-Boot.

Just wondering if anyone else with a PPC440 target had any special modifications to make 'reset' work.
Nope, it just works, on 3 different 440gx targets I have. The XES XPedite1000, the Ocotea, and our custom hardware...
hmmm.... will have to investigate further.
Could our problem be related to how our PPC is configured from serial eeprom? Or might is be that DBCR (or some other control register) is misconfigured - disallowing a "system reset"?
Thanks for confirming proper 'reset' operation as currently implemented.

Good point. But shouldn't the core and chip level reset still function, independent of the external reset line? The answer might be buried somewhere in the PPC440 tech manuals.
I might also talk to our hardware guys about this.
