Greetings

Please find attached a _minimal_ patch to run on the new MPC866ADS prototype board from Motorola. This is based on stable release 0.4.0

It is minimal in that the objective was to get it to run and to boot Linux which it does very well.

Known items not complete are: 1. Displaying the CPU type - this wasn't important to our objectives! 2. POST tests - watchdog and I2C fail. Interesting that the current config says that the ethernet loopback test is OK when the POST code only checks SCC1 but we're using FEC... hmmm.

There may be an outstanding issue with clock rates. The baud rate changes (19200->9600) depending on whether the bdi200 is connected or not!!

Based on the original FADS board and hence only requiring 1 minor tweak on a conditional in .../cpu/mpc8xx/start.S.

MAKEALL has been tested - our uclibc/gcc3.3 comes up with a few warnings but I think they are specific to the compiler. I don't have time at present to repeat the tests & post a complete set of results!!

Time to move on to our prototype hardware:-))
