Thanks. I've seen the FAQ and verified that include/asm-ppc/u-boot.h in U-Boot defines exactly the same struct as arch/ppc/platforms/evb405ep.h in Linux. I've gone so far as to just copy the Linux struct definition into u-boot.h, replacing the struct there with all the #ifdef's, rebuilding and reprogramming U-Boot on my system. That didn't help.
I'm really stuck. I know Wolfgang says I should just read the FAQs. I suspect it's something more complicated than that. If anybody here actually
Reading the FAQ's is just the first step.
If it doesn't work at first try you will need to analyze and debug the problem. A few questions to get you started:
* You don't see any output - maybe there is no console configured? Check the configuration of the serial console in your kernel, and try passing a suitable boot argument ("console=...").
* You think the kernel is hanging. Did you check there is any useful information in the log_buf area? And yes, this is another FAQ - see http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/LinuxPostMortemAnalysis
* If this doen't give any hints - did you attach a debuggger (BDI2000 recommended) and check which state the kernel is in?
