U-Boot

The U-Boot Universal Bootloader project provides firmware with full source code under GPL. Many CPU architectures are supported: PowerPC(MPC5xx, MPC8xx, MPC82xx, MPC7xx, MPC74xx, 4xx), ARM(ARM7, ARM9, StrongARM, Xscale), MIPS(4Kc,5Kc), x86 and others. The U-Boot project emerged from the PPC-Boot project when more than just PPC CPU's started to be supported. The primary project leaders are my partners at DENX but due to the OpenSource nature of the project they are happy to accept any patches and new BSP's written by other developers.

U-Boot and RTEMS

I made a small addition to U-Boot that makes it possible to boot PPC-RTEMS images with U-Boot. For more information see my RTEMS page.
