+=============================
+Linux 2.6.x on MPC52xx family
+=============================
+
+For the latest info, go to http://www.246tNt.com/mpc52xx/
+
+To compile/use :
+
+ - U-Boot::
+
+ # <edit Makefile to set ARCH=ppc & CROSS_COMPILE=... ( also EXTRAVERSION
+ if you wish to ).
+ # make lite5200_defconfig
+ # make uImage
+
+ then, on U-boot:
+ => tftpboot 200000 uImage
+ => tftpboot 400000 pRamdisk
+ => bootm 200000 400000
+
+ - DBug::
+
+ # <edit Makefile to set ARCH=ppc & CROSS_COMPILE=... ( also EXTRAVERSION
+ if you wish to ).
+ # make lite5200_defconfig
+ # cp your_initrd.gz arch/ppc/boot/images/ramdisk.image.gz
+ # make zImage.initrd
+ # make
+
+ then in DBug:
+ DBug> dn -i zImage.initrd.lite5200
+
+
+Some remarks:
+
+ - The port is named mpc52xxx, and config options are PPC_MPC52xx. The MGT5100
+ is not supported, and I'm not sure anyone is interesting in working on it
+ so. I didn't took 5xxx because there's apparently a lot of 5xxx that have
+ nothing to do with the MPC5200. I also included the 'MPC' for the same
+ reason.
+ - Of course, I inspired myself from the 2.4 port. If you think I forgot to
+ mention you/your company in the copyright of some code, I'll correct it
+ ASAP.
