David et al;

In my seemingly neverending effort to get linux up on the ML403, I went the 
route David B. did and worked with the xapp902 reference desing.  I have met 
with a little success and appeal for some assistance...

1.    The uart is dog slow.  I suspect it has to do with interrupts  (note the 
console dump below).  I see this line:

    [    2.637345] uartlite.0: ttyUL0 at MMIO 0xa0000000 (irq = 

    and I think that the interrupt isn't properly registered with the PIC.  
What do you think?

2.    Can you look below and comment on the ram disk size?  I am not sure what 
this value should be.  My ramdisk
    image is 4658942 bytes.  I recall reading somewhere that the value for the 
initrd ram disk should be about 10k larger 
    than the ramdisk size to allow for decompression.  The # of pages and page 
size is throwing me off.  Comments?
