Linux, MPC555 and serial .s19 download...

[mcdowell <mcdowell at ksu dot edu>]

I'm new at embedded development with linux and have a question that some will 
probably laugh at as it is so trivial.  I have set up minicom to connect with 
a MPC555 development board's ROM monitor over RS-232 (ttyS0).  I can connect 
fine issue commands, and communicate in general; however, when a try to 
download a .s19 file (a test program supplied the manufacturer) a run out of 
luck, it doesn't seem to work transfer correctly.  I'm using ascii transfer 
(Ascii-xfr) from minicom (I've also tried from the command line).  If anyone 
could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

Another quick question while I'm at it.  Has anyone use BDM on a MPC555 in 
linux and if so where might I find more information.

Thanks for your time
