+This file contains basic information on the port of U-Boot to TQM8260.
+All the changes fit in the common U-Boot infrastructure, providing a
+new TQM8260-specific entry in makefiles. To build U-Boot for TQM8260,
+type "make TQM8260_config", edit the "include/config_TQM8260.h" file
+if necessary, then type "make".
+
+
+Common file modifications:
+--------------------------
+
+The following common files have been modified by this project:
+(starting from the ppcboot-0.9.3/ directory)
+
+MAKEALL - TQM8260 entry added
+Makefile - TQM8260_config entry added
+cpu/mpc8260/Makefile - soft_i2c.o module added
+cpu/mpc8260/ether_scc.c - TQM8260-specific definitions added, an obvious
+ bug fixed (fcr -> scr)
+cpu/mpc8260/ether_fcc.c - TQM8260-specific definitions added
+include/flash.h - added definitions for the AM29LV640D Flash chip
+
+
+New files:
+----------
+
+The following new files have been added by this project:
+(starting from the ppcboot-0.9.3/ directory)
+
+board/tqm8260/ - board-specific directory
+board/tqm8260/Makefile - board-specific makefile
+board/tqm8260/config.mk - config file
+board/tqm8260/flash.c - flash driver (for AM29LV640D)
+board/tqm8260/ppcboot.lds - linker script
+board/tqm8260/tqm8260.c - ioport and memory initialization
+cpu/mpc8260/soft_i2c.c - software i2c EEPROM driver
+include/config_TQM8260.h - main configuration file
+
+
+New configuration options:
+--------------------------
+
+CONFIG_TQM8260
+
+ Main board-specific option (should be defined for TQM8260).
+
+CONFIG_82xx_CONS_SMC1
+
+ If defined, SMC1 will be used as the console
+
+CONFIG_82xx_CONS_SMC2
+
+ If defined, SMC2 will be used as the console
+
+CFG_INIT_LOCAL_SDRAM
+
+ If defined, the SDRAM on the local bus will be initialized and
+ mapped at BR2.
+
+
+Acceptance criteria tests:
+--------------------------
+
+The following tests have been conducted to validate the port of U-Boot
+to TQM8260:
+
+1. Operation on serial console:
+
+With the CONFIG_82xx_CONS_SMC1 option defined in the main configuration file,
+the U-Boot output appeared on the serial terminal connected to COM1 as
+follows:
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+=> help
+go - start application at address 'addr'
+run - run commands in an environment variable
+bootm - boot application image from memory
+bootp - boot image via network using BootP/TFTP protocol
+tftpboot- boot image via network using TFTP protocol
+ and env variables ipaddr and serverip
+rarpboot- boot image via network using RARP/TFTP protocol
+bootd - boot default, i.e., run 'bootcmd'
+loads - load S-Record file over serial line
+loadb - load binary file over serial line (kermit mode)
+md - memory display
+mm - memory modify (auto-incrementing)
+nm - memory modify (constant address)
+mw - memory write (fill)
+cp - memory copy
+cmp - memory compare
+crc32 - checksum calculation
+base - print or set address offset
+printenv- print environment variables
+setenv - set environment variables
+saveenv - save environment variables to persistent storage
+protect - enable or disable FLASH write protection
+erase - erase FLASH memory
+flinfo - print FLASH memory information
+bdinfo - print Board Info structure
+iminfo - print header information for application image
+coninfo - print console devices and informations
+eeprom - EEPROM sub-system
+loop - infinite loop on address range
+mtest - simple RAM test
+icache - enable or disable instruction cache
+dcache - enable or disable data cache
+reset - Perform RESET of the CPU
+echo - echo args to console
+version - print monitor version
+help - print online help

+Patch per Mon, 06 Aug 2001 17:57:27:
+
+- upgraded Flash support (added support for the following chips:
+ AM29LV800T/B, AM29LV160T/B, AM29DL322T/B, AM29DL323T/B)
+- BCR tweakage for the 8260 bus mode
+- SIUMCR tweakage enabling the MI interrupt (IRQ7)
+
+To simplify switching between the bus modes, a new configuration
+option (CONFIG_BUSMODE_60x) has been added to the "config_TQM8260.h"
+file. If it is defined, BCR will be configured for the 60x mode,
+otherwise - for the 8260 mode.
+
+Concerning the SIUMCR modification: it's hard to predict whether it
+will induce any problems on the other (60x mode) board. However, the
+problems (if they appear) should be easy to notice - if the board
+does not boot, it's most likely caused by the DPPC configuration in
+SIUMCR.

+This file contains status information for the port of U-Boot to the
+Galileo Evaluation Board.
+
+Author: Josh Huber <huber@mclx.com>

+
+The support for the Galileo Evaluation board is fairly minimal now.
+It's sufficient to boot Linux, but doesn't provide too much more than
+what's required to do this.
+
+Both DUART channels are supported (to use the second one, you have to
+modify the board -- see the schematics for where to solder on the
+devices module). The ethernet ports are supported, and the MPSC is
+supported as a console driver. (keep in mind that the kernel has no
+support for this yet)
+
+There are still occaisonal lockups with the MPSC console driver due to
+(we think!) overrun problems. If you're looking for something stable
+to use for Linux development, consider sticking with the DUART console
+for now.
+
+Automatic memory sizing mostly works. We've had problems with some
+combinations of memory. Please send us email if you're having trouble
+with respect to the memory detection.
+
+Right now, only the 512k boot flash is supported. Support for the
+16MB flash on the devices module is forthcoming. Right now the flash
+is stored at the 256k boundry in flash, wasting a whole sector (64k!)
+for environment data. This isn't really a big deal since we're not
+using the 512k for anything else. (Just U-Boot and the environment)
+
+Finally, here is a sample output session:
+
+U-Boot 1.0.0-pre1 (Jun 6 2001 - 12:45:11)
+
+Initializing...
+ CPU: MPC7400 (altivec enabled) v2.9
+ Board: EVB64260
+ DRAM: 256 MB
+ FLASH: 512 kB
+ In: serial
+ Out: serial
+ Err: serial
+
+=>
+
+The default configuration should be correct for the evaluation board,
+as it's shipped from Galileo. Keep in mind that the default baudrate
+is set to 38400, 8N1.
+
+Good luck, and make sure to send any bugreports to us (or the
+u-boot-users list).

+This file contains status information for the port of U-Boot to the
+Motorola mpc74xx series of CPUs.
+
+Author: Josh Huber <huber@mclx.com>
+ Mission Critical Linux, Inc.
+
+Currently the support for these CPUs is pretty minimal, but enough to
+get things going. (much like the support for the Galileo Eval Board)
+
+There is a framework in place to enable the L2 cache, and to program
+the BATs. Currently, there are still problems with the code which
+sets up the L2 cache, so it's not enabled. (IMHO, it shouldn't be
+anyway). Additionally, there is support for enabling the MMU, which
+we also don't do. The BATs are programmed just for the benefit of
+jumping into Linux in a sane configuration.
+
+Most of the code was based on other cpus supported by U-Boot.
+
+If you find any errors in the CPU setup code, please send us a note.
+
+Thanks,
+Josh

+USB Support for PIP405 and MIP405 (UHCI)
+========================================
+
+The USB support is implemented on the base of the UHCI Host
+controller.
+
+Currently supported are USB Hubs, USB Keyboards and USB Floppys.
+Tested with a TEAC Floppy TEAC FD-05PUB and Chicony KU-8933 Keyboard.
+
+How it works:
+-------------
+
+The USB (at least the USB UHCI) needs a frame list (4k), transfer
+descripor and queue headers which are all located in the main memory.
+The UHCI allocates every milisecond the PCI bus and reads the current
+frame pointer. This may cause to crash the OS during boot. So the USB
+_MUST_ be stopped during OS boot. This is the reason, why the USB is
+NOT automatically started during start-up. If someone needs the USB
+he has to start it and should therefore be aware that he had to stop
+it before booting the OS.
+
+For USB keyboards this can be done by a script which is automatically
+started after the U-Boot is up and running. To boot an OS with a an
+USB keyboard another script is necessary, which first disables the
+USB and then executes the boot command. If the boot command fails,
+the script can reenable the USB kbd.
+
+Common USB Commands:
+- usb start:
+- usb reset: (re)starts the USB. All USB devices will be
+ initialized and a device tree is build for them.
+- usb tree: shows all USB devices in a tree like display
+- usb info [dev]: shows all USB infos of the device dev, or of all
+ the devices
+- usb stop [f]: stops the USB. If f==1 the USB will also stop if
+ an USB keyboard is assigned as stdin. The stdin
+ is then switched to serial input.
+Storage USB Commands:
+- usb scan: scans the USB for storage devices.The USB must be
+ running for this command (usb start)
+- usb device [dev]: show or set current USB staorage device
+- usb part [dev]: print partition table of one or all USB storage
+ devices
+- usb read addr blk# cnt:
+ read `cnt' blocks starting at block `blk#'to
+ memory address `addr'
+- usbboot addr dev:part:
+ boot from USB device
+
+Config Switches:
+----------------
+CFG_CMD_USB enables basic USB support and the usb command
+CONFIG_USB_UHCI defines the lowlevel part.A lowlevel part must be defined if
+ using CFG_CMD_USB
+CONFIG_USB_KEYBOARD enables the USB Keyboard
+CONFIG_USB_STORAGE enables the USB storage devices
