Hi:

If you have a board with MPC860 and you ported Linux to your board
successfully, do me a favor please.

Do following steps:
1. Use objdump to find out the location of identify_machine() in
vmlinux,
in my vmlinux, the location is 0xC00C8984.
2. Setup a break point after gunzip() in decompress_kernel().
3. Check the location(0x000C8984) of identify_machine(), is the
contents correct?

By the way, what kind of debug tool are you using when you port and
debug Linux on your PowerPC board?

Thanks!

LiuTao
