I'm trying to get kexec to boot a powerpc arch kernel on a Freescale 834x board, but kexec-tools-1.101 seems to support only the Gamecube on 32-bit ppc.
I tried hacking a memory range of 0x00030000 - 0x08000000 into kexec, and feeding it the vmlinux ELF image that's generated when I build the kernel, but kexec complains about 0xc0000000 being an invalid memory range. As far as I understand, 0xc0000000 is the kernel start address in virtual memory, and it's not clear how to get kexec to load the vmlinux image at a reasonable physical address (like 0x00030000). Do I need to build a different powerpc image to make kexec happy, or is some hacking needed in the kexec userland program? Am I missing a more powerpc-capable version of kexec-tools? --Ed _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list [email protected] https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
