hello, I am facing a problem in booting the Linux on MPC8260ADS board. Linux version : 2.4.17 (MontaVista)
I have added the patches required to MPC8260ADS board like setting up the memory map and BATs. Control enters "start_here" subroutine (linux2.4.17_mvl121/arch/ppc/kernel). But it hangs before calling "load_mmu" subroutine. --- Code begins --- /* * Go back to running unmapped so we can load up new values * for SDR1 (hash table pointer) and the segment registers * and change to using our exception vectors. */ lis r4,2f at h ori r4,r4,2f at l tophys(r4,r4) li r3,MSR_KERNEL & ~(MSR_IR|MSR_DR) FIX_SRR1(r3,r5) mtspr SRR0,r4 mtspr SRR1,r3 SYNC RFI (**** <= After this, MPC8260 hangs ****) /* Load up the kernel context */ 2: --- Code ends --- Is there any reason for this to happen??? And any solutions to get the linux going... Am i using the wrong file in compilation, by any chance? Any help is appreciated. Thanks and regards, kamal ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
