Anyone using RTEMS on Motorola ColdFire (e.g. MCF5272)?

[Mike Siers]

Hi Maarten,
Please check out the following URL.  The web page has some
very useful information about Motorola Coldfire development.
At this web site there is a link to the Netburner site and
some old information about RTEMS.

http://www.fiddes.net/coldfire/

Also, I do not think you will be able to use the RPM binary
versions of the GNU tools for Coldfire development.  This
web site has some patches that must be applied to gcc for the
coldfire.  And you will also want Chris John's gdb-bdm patches.

I am working using a Coldfire 5206e evaluation board.  Below
are the versions of the tools that I am using (built from the
source code).

 1) binutils-2.10 with Coldfire patches and RTEMS patch 2000-11-07
 2) gcc-2.95.3 with Coldfire patches and RTEMS patch 2001-03-14
 3) newlib-1.9.0 with Coldfire patches and RTEMS patch 2001-06-22
 4) rtems snapshot 2001-08-16

Good Luck
Mike Siers
