We are running pci cards very well.

The boot loader we used was openbios, which was already
installed in the flash.
We ported a part of ppcboot to linux kernel to complete
the pci configuration. Now pci is running well on our Walnut.

What we did was:

add the function
"void pci_init(void)" in <cpu/ppc4xx/405gp_pci.c> in ppcboot
directory

into
"void __init pcibios_init(void)" in <linux/arch/ppc/kernel/pci.c>

Some minor changes were needed such as functions/macros
renaming.


The conclusion is that ppcboot configures pci well.

Above is one of solutions.
Swapping openbios with ppcboot will be good.
Downloading and running ppcboot, then downloading linux by
ppcboot seems well.
