3 | The BSP is built and tested on the RTEMS 4.9.1 release. The |
---|
4 | PR1385 patch for c/src/lib/libbsp/powerpc/shared/irq/irq_asm.S |
---|
5 | is not needed for the mvme5500 BSP because the PowerPC BSPs |
---|
6 | use the shared exception framework in the RTEMS 4.9 release. |

8 | Booting requirement : |
---|
9 | ------------------------- |
---|
10 | |
---|
11 | 1) One needs to setup BOOTP/DHCP and TFTP servers and /etc/bootptab(BOOTP) |
---|
12 | or /etc/dhcpd.conf (DHCP) properly to boot the system. |
---|
13 | (Note : EPICS needs a NTP server). |
---|
14 | |
---|
15 | 2) Example of the boot script setup carried out on the MOTLoad |
---|
16 | command line : |
---|
17 | |
---|
18 | MVME5500> gevEdit mot-script-boot |
---|
19 | (Blank line terminates input.) |
---|
20 | tftpGet -a4000000 -cxx.xx.xx.xx -sxx.xx.xx.xx -m255.255.254.0 -d/dev/enet0 -fepics/hostname/bin/rtems5500-cexp.bin |

---|
28 | Note : (cxx.xx.xx.xx is the client IP address and |
---|
29 | sxx.xx.xx.xx is the server IP address) |

---|
34 | |
---|
35 | 4) To reboot the RTEMS-MVME5500 (board reset), one can invoke the |
---|
36 | rtemsReboot() command at Cexp> prompt. |
---|
37 | |
---|
38 | 5) To get started with RTEMS/EPICS and to build development |
---|
39 | tools and BSP, I would recommend one to reference |
