[U-Boot] U-boot hangs in mtest in MPC8280 Board

Dear Sir, i am using MPC8280 in our board which has 512MB of SDRAM i.e. from micron.
when i give command mtest only for 1MB to check memory test from U-boot, machine check and program exception is coming after 40 - 60mins later it hangs giving program check exception
i have checked the SDRAM configuration settings everything is fine as per the device datasheet.
please i want to know where is the problem, what is the cause for this exception. why memory test fails after 40-60mins.
error output is as attached:-
MPC8260 Reset Status: Check Stop, External Soft, External Hard

i am stuck here, dont know where to check if it hangs after 40-60mins.
do help me out in this regard,
Thanks in advance gurumurthy

Is this board in mainline, so I can look in the Source Code? Which u-boot version? Which SDRAMs?

Hmm... maybe problems with your SDRAMs? Is this error shown always after 40-60 mins, not sometimes also earlier? Can you boot a Linux Kernel for example?

please i want to know where is the problem, what is the cause for this exception. why memory test fails after 40-60mins.

I cannot see here in this log, where you typed mtest ...
i am stuck here, dont know where to check if it hangs after 40-60mins.
Maybe a temperature problem?
do help me out in this regard,
If I can ... share more informations, and maybe I can.
bye Heiko
