gumstiz u-boot loader in linux

=============================================================================

	     U-Boot port on the LEOX's ELPT860 CPU board
	     -------------------------------------------

LEOX.org is about the development of free hardware and software resources
	 for system on chip.

For more information, contact The LEOX team <[e-mail]>

    1) Get the last stable release from denx.de:
	   o ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/u-boot-0.2.0.tar.bz2
    2) Get the current CVS snapshot:
	   o cvs -d:pserver:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/u-boot login
	   o cvs -z6 -d:pserver:[e-mail]:/cvsroot/u-boot co -P u-boot

=============================================================================

The ELPT860 CPU board has the following features:

Processor:	- MPC860T @ 50MHz
		- PowerPC Core
		- 65 MIPS
		- Caches: D->4KB, I->4KB
		- CPM: 4 SCCs, 2 SMCs
		- Ethernet 10/100
		- SPI, I2C, PCMCIA, Parallel

CPU board:	- DRAM:   16 MB
		- FLASH: 512 KB + (2 * 4 MB)
		- NVRAM: 128 KB
		- 1 Serial link
		- 2 Ethernet 10 BaseT Channels

On power-up the processor jumps to the address of 0x02000100

Thus, U-Boot is configured to reside in flash starting at the address of
0x02001000.  The environment space is located in NVRAM separately from
U-Boot, at the address of 0x03000000.
