Look at Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt for details on how that is done. Beyond that there isn't too much different from arch/ppc to arch/powerpc. Take a look at the 83xx or 85xx platforms for comparison examples between arch/ppc & arch/powerpc. I'd suggest for working up your flat dev tree for the bridge on HPC2 and post that to the linuxppc-dev list for review and then go from there. - kumar - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
