Hi,
I've got some vague documentation of the header that the firmware expects.
According to that:
> bl start_
> nop
> nop
> .long 0x33
This should be a decimal 49, i.e. 0x31.
> .string "XncdPPC"
> .long 0xxxxx0000 <-- upper 16 bits = CRC
Should work with a 0 in place of this.
> .long 0xyyyyyyyy <-- file size
This should be the size of text + data + bss, i.e. something like
_C_LABEL(end)-_C_LABEL(kernel_text)
> .long 0x00092214
> .long 0x00000000
> .long 0x39771c2a
These 3 words should all be 0.
> .long 0x00000010
This indicates the type of machine.
It should be 0x10 for the 1000, 3 for the 300.
Hope it helps.
Ciao,
Wolfgang
