Ok, I'm loading the kernel and initrd into place (using the addresses from "fis list" since I don't have any boot logs), and I'm running exec similarly to how it was run by the boot script already in the flash. I get the line Uncompressing Linux...., and then I don't see anything else. I assume at that point it's picking up a console from some incorrect device, and I don't know what device to tell it to use. My session looks like this (leaving out the initrd until I can actually get a kernel loading): RedBoot> load -r -v -b 0x00180000 vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-iop32x Using default protocol (TFTP) \ Raw file loaded 0x00180000-0x002d95f7, assumed entry at 0x00180000 RedBoot> exec -b 0x00180000 -l 0x1595f8 -c "console=ttyS0,115200n8" The boot tags are located at 0xA0000100 Booting the kernel... Uncompressing Linux............................................................. I've tried console=ttyS0 and ttyS1; either way I just get the Uncompressing line and then nothing else. Is is possible that the kernel I downloaded doesn't have serial console support, or am I missing some option to force it to use it? Or could there be something else that I'm doing wrong? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
