Hi All,
I have been preparing set of patches for Microblaze FDT which is based on EDK-integrated generator.
I have the first function version but is based on different structure that EDK generator make now.
And I have one function version (DTS file contain information about CPU, timer, intc, uart).
I will work on it next week. I have no development board in my hand but I hope that situation will be better next week.

I think that the first line must contain information about base address.
Like this.
	RS232_Uart_1@ 84000000{

>(The exact set of parameters and how they are generated from an EDK file
>was the subject of the previous discussion)
I will read this and I'll send my comments about.

This generator generate configuration file for U-BOOT. If you want to test it you must
download U-BOOT from denx git repository http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot/u-boot-microblaze.git;a=shortlog;h=testing XUPV2P board.
Next week I'll patch U-BOOT starting part for starting Linux kernel on Microblaze.

Yes definitely
