Never tried, never will.

The FADS860 is one of the boards wich are supported  by  PPCBoot.  If
you're  looking for a powerful and convenient way to run Linux on you
board you should give it a try.

The PPCBoot project page is at http://ppcboot.sourceforge.net/  where
you  can  also find the CVS server with the latest source versions, a
user's mailing list is at <ppcboot-users at lists.sourceforge.net> , and
if you're looking for tarballs you can find them in
ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/ppcboot/
