Hello list,
I try to use an external UART with an ARM9 of NetSilicon. The driver for Linux works fine. In u-boot I thougt about using the NS16550 driver and it workes fine, too. I see the output and can use the console to make changes to the u-boot commands. Now my problem: 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?
regards,
