True, but there's always a lot of ways to do it.  Here's an example that 
might help you get started configuring the EBC from Linux.  Here's a 
device driver directory from a recent 440GX project:

You might look at pdev-gxctl.c.  It is a simple module that sets up the 
EBC address space for two sets of address ranges with 16-bit data paths. 
  These are for simple register read/writes to control some FPGAs. 
Pdev-gxctl provides an mmap() interface to /dev/xxx so user code can 
easily access the FPGA registers mapped onto the EBC.  The difference 
for the 405Ex should be pretty small.
