That leaves me with one question. When I don't do anything in the init
section of the bdi2000 except one command which is to remove the L2SRAM
from the initial MMU page and then I proceed with booting the board
boots fine. If I halt the board examine the CCSRBAR it has moved from
the default location.
I must be missing something, any ideas?
Thanks
