I sent one of the configs (kilauea = PPC405EX) as part of these
patches, please see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.embedded.poky/942/focus=946

The other one (tqm5200 = MPC5200) is an attachment to
http://bugzilla.pokylinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574 - please see
http://bugzilla.pokylinux.org/attachment.cgi?id=78

I didn't try qemuppc yet; I successfully built mpc8315e-rdb for
laverne on Fedora 13 (but failed on F 14). Did not try current master
yet.

Well, minimal image may not include the problematic packages - it's
"poky-image-sdk" which is failing.

I see.  Well, I guess I should try qemuppc then - basicly this is the
same configuration (ppc603e) as used with tqm5200; I'd be surprised to
see different results.  Build is running...


Best regards,
