Subject: * Added MPC855 support
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a390f10f0a5cc44562cd15df52c77a35e74c2980;p=users%2Frw%2Fppcboot.git

* Added MPC855 support
* Tested with MPC8xx at 80 MHz CPU clock / 40 MHz bus clock
* Don't block booting of other OS than Linux using "bootm"
* Added Cogent port (by Murray Jensen <Murray.Jensen@cmst.csiro.au>)
* Added KGDB support (by Murray Jensen)
  Warning: the KGDB code is *big*. If you include it you'll probably
  need to throw out lots of other features or increas the size of
  your firmware memory.
* Extended flash addressing to use sector numbers

 Modifications for 0.5.1:
 ======================================================================
 
+* Bugfix: we can't write to global data as long as we are running
+  from flash; we'll use some memory above the initial stack now.
+
+* Copy configuration parameters (ethaddr, ipaddr) to board info
+  struct when they are set or changed using "setenv" thus avoiding
+  that you have to reboot the board for the change to take effect
+  (hey, we aren't Widoze after all)
+
 * Made many commands configurable to save memory on production
   systems or to disable features (like network support) on hardware
-  which cannot support it
+  which cannot support it, or to make PPCBoot fit in a give ROM size.
 
 * Added support for SPD823TS board.
