Hi, all, After running a plain old build on 2.4.15 with the ppc32 patches from kernel.org, this is how my zvmlinux.embedded image looks: mattg at mattg-linux /home/mattg/wan-router/linux/arch/ppc/boot/images Mon Dec 03 2001 8:13:14am {6} powerpc-linux-objdump -h zvmlinux.embedded

Matt, I've seen this problem myself. The easiest solution is to find a way to force your boot code to load the zImage to a different (i.e. higher) address, say 0x0020. When the mini boot loader relocates itself, it leaves the contents of the image section in place, so then the .bss and the

Hi All, I was just wondering if other people on the list were using the sbc8260 from Wind River. If not, does anybody know of a linux oriented list where people use this board? Thanks, Andy ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/

You need to take the ELF file, ppcboot, and convert it into a .bin file using the vision ICE convert utility. The file format referred to as BIN in the visionICE documentation isn't a real binary image - it has a special header. Andrew Dixon wrote: Hi All, I'm trying to put ppcboot onto my

Your PPCBoot image is linked at 0x4000 and your convert defaults are converting from 0xfe00..0xfe02 (this is where EST puts the boot memory unless you've changed the HRCW to ORG it at 0x -- glossing over quite a few details here). Anyway, there ain't no data in that range,
