The 4-pin power jack (P12) should be used to supply necessary DC power to the board.
Power up the power supply. A few seconds after power up, the u-boot prompt => should be received by
the serial terminal program as shown here:

A board support package (BSP) is pre-installed on the MPC8308_RDB. This BSP consists of a bootloader
(u-boot), a generic PowerPC Linux-based system, and an associated file system. U-boot, the Linux kernel,
and the file system reside in the on-board flash memory. At power up, the Linux system runs on the
MPC8308_RDB.
The MPC8308_RDB BSP generation takes advantage of a tool called the Linux Target Image Builder
(LTIB). LTIB is a suite of tools that leverages existing open source configuration scripts and source code
packages and bundles them into a single BSP-generation package. The source code packages include boot
loaders and Linux kernel sources as well as many user-space source code packages to build a complete
BSP. LTIB also provides compiler packages required to build the BSP. Freescale developers use LTIB to
create BSPs for a multitude of Freescale development targets. LTIB leverages as many BSP elements as
possible for all Freescale-supported targets, and it offers the flexibility to customize components that
require platform-specific modifications.
The MPC8308_RDB BSP release package contains a file named
