Hello,

Our hardware context: We have a DaVinci TMSDM6446 target board.

Our Problem : When CS2 ChipSelect is on "FLASH" = NOR and S3 red switch = 1010111111 (COUT0 on left to YOUT0 on right) So we boot from NOR flash, then on the gtkterm emulator terminal, we see that the kernel booting is stopped just after "booting the." string (see below or enclosure file ) :

U-Boot 1.1.3 (Mar 15 2006 - 11:42:19)

U-Boot code: 81080000 -> 81097320 BSS: -> 810A0230 RAM Configuration: Bank #0: 80000000 256 MB MY AMD Flash: 16 MB In: serial Out: serial Err: serial ARM Clock :- 283MZ DDR Clock :- 189MZ Hit any key to stop autoboot: 3  2  1  0 ## Booting image at 02050000 ... Image Name: Linux-2.6.10_mvl402 Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) Data Size: 1322948 Bytes = 1.3 MB Load Address: 80008000 Entry Point: 80008000 Verifying Checksum ... OK OK

Starting kernel ...

Uncompressing Linux..................................................................................... done, booting the.

Questions : 1- What is occured in your oppinion ? 2- How can I debug this ? with which tools ? I've no JTAG available for the moment.

thank you
