Linux for a Telecom PowerQUICC Board
Linux was ported to a PowerQUICC based telecom board.
The bootloader (U-Boot) and the operating system were adapted to the hardware. Several drivers had to be developed, e.g. for SPI, for FPGA download and to control memory mapped devices. A terminal interface for hardware programming and application development was generated.
