 [ColdFire] How to compile the 2.6 kernel version for the MCF5208EVB platform  Can't Post 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 

Hi all:

I would like to know how to compile the 2.6 kernel version for the
MCF5208EVB evaluation
board. I have downloaded the latest release from
http://www.uclinux.org/ports/coldfire/uClinux-dist-20051110.tar.gz
but this platform is not supported, as I can see. Also I would like to
know if there is any patch
for this release to support the MCF5208EVB board.

Thanks.

Javier

It is in the latest test release, get that package at:

http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/uClinux-dist-test-20051027.tar.gz

(Its code base is more recent than the 20051110 release - even though
it has a slightly older date code).

Regards
Greg
