We have a very raw patch series which makes rt-preempt working on
MPC5200B (tested on phyCORE-MPC5200B-tiny, but it should not be that
much different from your lite board).

Thomas, how can we proceed in that direction. The main problem with the
patch I've sent you is that it hacks away the generic powerpc timer
implementation in arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c and implements a minimum
working set for the MPC5200. As we currently neither have the ressources
nor access to other powerpc machines than the MPC5200B, it may be
interesting that somebody with better powerpc access would do it 'the
right way'.

I'll repost the series in a separate mail.
