The values stored in U-Boot's "gd->bd->bi_boot_params" variable and the "BOOT_PARAMS" macro in the machine specific "arch" file of ARMLinux have to be equal. AFAICS there is not passing in of the pointer to the tag list in r2, at least not in the kernel i'm looking at.
Ah, ok, that does work.
Russell, the documentation in Documentation/arm/Booting seems to be missleading. Is the BOOT_PARAMS method the right way to go? If yes, how does the kernel know which address the bootloader uses to store the tagged list?
