How do you know this? Console isn't initialized until after the kernel command line printk and a few other facilities are initialized. > Analysing the __log_buf I get the following output > (gdb) x/s &__log_buf > 0xc01accfc <ratelimit_lock.9>: "<4>Linux version 2.6.10 > (niklaus at ng.ngiger.dyndns.org) (gcc-Version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-8)) #15 > Sun > Feb 27 14:44:27 CET 2005\n<7>On node 0 totalpages: 8240\n<7> DMA zone: 8240 > pages, LIFO batch:2\n<7>"... > (gdb) x > 0xc01acdc4 <ratelimit_lock.9+200>: " Normal zone: 0 pages, LIFO > batch:1\n<7> HighMem zone: 0 pages, LIFO batch:1\n<4>Built 1 > zonelists\n<4>Kernel command line: ip=172.25.1.6\n<4>PID hash table entries: > 256 (order:8, 4096 bytes)\n" > (gdb) x > 0xc01ace84 <ratelimit_lock.9+392>: "" Is this all of the log_buf output? Try setting your kernel cmdline with "console=ttyS0,115200" where 115200 is you console baudrate you are using in U-Boot. Otherwise, the kernel 8250 driver has no idea which baudrate to set for the 8250/console. -Matt
