Hi all. I wish to know how to debug the kernel via the serial terminal. I have use the kernel, linux 2.4.19 and 2.4.20-rc2 as trying to load on a Motorola MCP750 (PReP). The very first compile that I did booted alright, but everyone one after that does not. It stops at when residual data found. I don't know if something in my nvram is screwing it up. Following is the output when loading the kernel. Any pointers on how to debug this would be great. Thanks.
