EST MPC823 board

We already have VXWorks working on the board, so a lot of data can be
gleaned from the BSP for that. As a beginner to U-Boot - would the
information from that be sufficient to get to a working build?

EST were taken over by Windriver some time ago - and given the level of
support we have received from them in the past (hence movement to Linux...)
I am not optimistic of getting information from them regarding an 8 year old
board!

for the list : 
Its difficult to see from the U-Boot tree which boards are based on the
MPC623 - is there a quick way of finding which are? grep for 623?

a good way is to find a similar (supported) board and use it as starting
point. but for this you need your board's datasheet.

please ignore my last post, I didn't read the model correctly

if you get the datasheet (you must know things like control registers
address and meaning) it's possible to do it. google a bit too, maybe
someone has it.
