Hi,
I am still having trouble booting Linux on the ARM Integrator/CP with an ARM920T macrocell. I have tried Peter Pearse's Patches which enable U-Boot to support the ARM920T macrocell but i can get message as before:
Starting Kernel ...
Then nothing - the boot process freezes.
I have the feeling that you might have missed to read the FAQ, especially http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/LinuxKernelIgnoresMyBootargs
I have checked the above note but this is already the default with Linux-2.6.9 (i.e. i dont have to modify anything here for ARM).
I am trying to boot the kernel(+ramdisk) from RAM so when building the kernel i use the following setting:
CONFIG_CMDLINE="console=ttyUA0 mem=128M root=/dev/ram0 video=vc:1-2clcdfb ramdisk_size=17408 initrd=0x24500000,6980391
And in U-Boot i set: setenv bootargs console=ttyUA0 mem=128M root=/dev/ram0 video=vc:1-2clcdfb
Is this correct? Even if i just try to boot the kernel ignoring the RAMDisk i still get "Starting kernel ..." then freeze nothing happens.
Any info appreciated, Regards, Alan.
