Bare board development on P1010/P1014

[ljp93105]

Am I the only one doing bare board development on the P1010/P1014 platform?

It seems that all the Freescale documentation is assuming that customers develop their applications as user-mode programs to run under Linux, and the only bare-board program in sight is U-boot, which seems to be licensed on terms that do not allow me to take code snippets and integrate them in my proprietary software.

My project intends to reuse a code base that we developed under a proprietary RTOS in a Power-QUICC I (MPC860 and MPC885) environment and so the first order of business is to port the RTOS and our own boot code. I am surprised how little support there seems to be for this -- or maybe I just do not know where to look.

All responses are welcome.

You can look at libos (see Freescale Public GIT), and our hypervisor as an example project that uses libos.  These are 2-clause-BSD licensed.  Libos supports e500v2.  The hypervisor has things that are e500mc-specific, but it still might be a helpful example.  This is standalone code in that it doesn't run under Linux, though it still needs a bootloader.  U-Boot is the boot software we support, though we can try to answer any questions you may have in porting your own boot software.
