Our target is somewhat like this. It has PPC8270, Flash and SDRAM. We are using the uboot for booting. Successfully built the linux kernel and Ramdisk images using devrocket. The problem is that the kernel and Ramdisk images although getting extracted successfully to 0M location of SDRAM from Flash with the help of uboot, the serial console says nothing except "uboot ist nicht tot..."
The command used is bootm "kernelImageLocation in Flash" "RAMdisk Image in Flash" i.e bootm 0xfe080000 0xff080000 1. How do I know that the control was given to linux kernel? 2. Is it that the linux kernel got the control but unable to put the prompt on the serial line? FYI. I modified the inittab to reflect the console to come on the serial line. 3. Is there any documentation which gives the detailed debugging of the linux kernel from the loading of kernel? -Thanks SS Confidentiality Notice The information contained in this electronic message and any attachments to this message are intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s) and may contain confidential or privileged information.
