    Exclamation memory map issue in powerpc

    Hi all

    Please help me in the following problem


    I have an mpc8360e processor for our networking application. I have to use 1GB DRAM module but powerpc is not supporting that. It is supporting only 256MB. Powerpc has 8 BAT( block address translation) registers, each support maximum of 256MB, which can be allocated for maximum 8 peripherals.

    So I could use only one BAT registers for my DRAM module( gives me 256MB) even when i tried to use 1GB DIMM module
    Please help me to do the memory mapping with the above criteria

    Regards
    Remya S J

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    You should probably move this thread to The Linux Kernel thread.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
