I have been working with the hardware guys trying to
find any issues with the memory, and we haven't seen
anything yet, and we have talked to AMCC, and they
said they couldn't see anything wrong with the
hardware. I did do a post-mordum dump of the log
buffer, and this is what I get:

I placed a few printks in arch/ppc/kernel/start.c and
found that it crashed right after do_init_bootmem(),
right after placing the first character of "_JJS4_1".
printk("JJS3");
parse_early_param();
printk("JJS3_1");
for (i = 0; i < 1000000; i++)
{
if (i > 999999)
{
break;
}
}
printk("JJS4");
/* set up the bootmem stuff with available
memory */
do_init_bootmem();
printk("_JJS4_1");
if ( ppc_md.progress )
ppc_md.progress("setup_arch: bootmem", 0x3eab);
printk("_JJS4_2");
When it does decide to work, most of the time it gets
through the whole kernel and everything runs fine,
though I have seen it hang after probing for PCI
devices a couple of times. This looks like it is a
memory issue, but I don't know what else to try. Does
anyone have any ideas? I would appreciate any input.
Thanks,
Jeff Stevens
