Jakob, Why are you using 2.6.8.1 which is rather old and doesn't have any Virtex-II Pro support?
Virtex-II Pro support in 2.6 is very minimalistic at the moment: http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/cset at 1.1938.115.48 Nevertheless, it should be enough to bring up your board with 16x50 UART and ramdisk (I mean adding your platform using ML300 as a template). This stuff works for me in the following configuration: board: Xilinx ML300 bitstream: http://www.xilinx.com/ise/embedded/edk6_2docs/edk_62i_examples.htm Example #7 kernel: 2.6.11-rc1 .config: attached You could also need the TLB bug fix mentioned at: http://support.xilinx.com/xlnx/xil_ans_display.jsp?iLanguageID=1&iCountryID=1&getPagePath=14052 (look for "Solution 12") and http://ppc.bkbits.net:8080/linuxppc-2.4/cset at 1.1282 Best regards, Andrei Jakob Viketoft wrote: > Hello everyone! > > I've just started trying to get the Linux (2.6.8.1) kernel to run on the > above mentioned board (or, specifically, a PPC405 on the Xilinx > Virtex-II Pro 2VP20).
