I am using u-boot to boot an EP8260 board. However once I load/tftp Kernel ELF file to 0x400000 and try to run the kernel from 0x410000, it crashes... I used the same ELF file with Embedded planet's boot loader and it works fine. Any pointers....

Thanks

Find out which port pin(s) is/are configured as OD output. Check which other port pins on this port are in use, and which drivers are using these port pins. Make all these drivers use a common buffer variable. Voila...
