Re: [U-Boot] Kernel loading and memory layout

Hello

2009/1/21 Vinay Venkataraghavan raghavanvinay@yahoo.com:

I am new to using uboot but have gone through the code to a certain degree but still have some questions.

1. Where does uboot transfer control to the linux kernel. By this I mean which file in the source code would I look for this.

   Would it for example be in : arch/powerpc/boot and in one of the assembly language files?

Look at $(uboot)/common/cmd_bootm.c, cmd_boot.c. On ARM the process also involves $(uboot)/lib_arm/bootm.c, I guess should be something similar on PPC.
