[U-Boot-Users] booting linux

Hello,
I have a problem when I'm trying to boot Linux on my platform (PXA255 processor, Strataflash 0x0-0x00800000, SDRAM 0xa0000000- 0xa4000000 and FFUART ). I have compiled the Linux kernel (2.4.19) for my board starting from the CSB226 port. I have created the uImage with the entry point and load address at 0xa0008000.
I download over the serial line the image at address 0xa1000000 and after I issued the bootm 0xa1000000 command, the u-boot decompressed the image, but "after starting Linux kernel ..." it hangs.
Does anyone encountered this problem?
Thanks,
Petre

I think this question is more related to a Linux group. U-Boot seems to do its job of loading the kernel but there might be other problems with Linux.
