Hello,
several weeks ago, I asked the list for information about a
cdb89712-revA board which did not want to work as expected according to
Roland Seuh's webpage. I got many help - thank's a lot - but I still
cannot use the board whith a 2.4.x-rmk kernel.
Finally, I managed to do my stuff with the bluecat 2.2.12-rmk1 based
kernel, wich consists in building a "serial port server", a kind of
"serial over IP" or something like that. It's funny to see how small can
the static binary be when compiled with uClibc !
Well, I still do not understand WHY things go wrong. I have compared
different initialization sequences in bluecat kernel, 2.4.6-rmk-rayl and
2.4.15-rmk series... cannot find any probable cause (anyway, my knowledg
about assembler in general and on arm is poor... null in fact). I tried
to play with the led flasher in the init sequence in head.S in
2.4.16-rmk and found that the kernels hang (or loop ?) during the
decompression stage for 2.4.15-rmk1. I don't want to spend any more time
- and the time of the list - on this problem as according to reports
about cdb89712, it does not happen with revB or revC (of cdb89712).

So, as an ultimate test, would it be possible for someone from the list
to send me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) a compiled kernel working
on this board ?
2.4.6-rmk1-rayl1 wich boot messages are exhibited on Roland's page would
be perfect!

It would allow me to rule out the compiler (which should be correct but ...).
Thanks in advance
s�bastien
