[U-Boot-Users] Kernel hangs for mbx860
Hi,
Has anyone managed to run linux on mbx860? I have the problem with kernel hangs after uncompressing, using ELDK, u-boot-1.0.0 and linuxppc_2_4_devel. I have searched the DULG, linuxppc-embedded mailing list, u-boot-users list, with no luck. The bd_info struct in mbx.h is included as in u-boot.h, and the IMAP_ADDR uses the same value (0xfa200000) as CFG_IMMR in u-boot MBX.h. Also the eviroment variable "clocks_in_mhz" has been unset and changes saved to nvram.
I have managed to boot linux and mount nfs with EPPC-Bug pl though, before I start to change bd_info. What else does linux expect from u-boot. Please advice!

Hi again,
Something mysterios with the kernel compilation. When you have compiled it several times using make zImage and make uImage with different configs, the kernel gets messed up???. Didn't help with make mrproper and make clean.
Network Booting from: MPC860, Controller 20, Device 0 Loading: tests/zImage.embedded
(Output with EPPC-Bug pl, since linux didn't boot with u-boot) Bytes Received =&583472, Bytes Loaded =&583472 Bytes/Second =&291736, Elapsed Time =2 Second(s) ààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààààà ...
So I removed the whole thing, unpacked the kernel, included ppcboot.h in mbx.h. After compilation u-boot finally booting linux!!!
Thanks again to Denks super ELDK and DULG.
