Scapa walks, talks, but can’t run
Today we succeeded in taking the first tentative steps toward getting Scapa running.
The board now boots Yamon. I’ve already got a working db1550 port of linux here, so minimal changes need to be made to get this onto the board. My next task is to add the bootloader into the build system so that it is built afresh each time. Good progress today.
Unfortunately we have a problem with signal termination for the DDR RAM so we must run the RAM at slow speed to avoid memory errors. Hopefully this will get put right by mods or in the worst case by a respin.
