Using an u-boot with the NS16550 makes linux not booting any more. The last message I get is "Starting kernel ...". It is not possible to ping the target any more. Using an u-boot without the NS16550 driver works. I don't see the u-boot output but linux starts normal.
Any ideas what's going wrong?
You have a problem in your Linux kernel. The Linux drivers must not make any assumptions about any initialization done or not done by any boot loader. Fix your Linux driver.
