Hello! Replying to myself: I'm able to see bootup messages on ttyCPM0 now after i applied the "Made non-console uart work"-patch that i skipped until now because, well, it was "non-console" ...
However, output on ttyCPM0 stops soon: Linux version 2.6.13-rc5 (ashaepe at rcf02) (gcc version 3.3.2) #20 Fri Aug 5 17:48:42 CEST 2005 Built 1 zonelists Kernel command line: console=ttyCPM0,38400n8 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/home/ashaepe/nfs rw ip=10.135.2.133:10.135.0.22:1 0.135.0.1:255.255.252.0::eth0:off PID hash table entries: 64 (order: 6, 1024 bytes) Decrementer Frequency = 375000000/60 Dentry cache hash table entries: 2048 (order: 1, 8192 bytes) Inode-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes) Memory: 6272k available (1352k kernel code, 404k data, 68k init, 0k highmem) Mount-cache hash table entries: 512 Badness in dma_alloc_init at arch/ppc/kernel/dma-mapping.c:348 Call trace: [c0005b10] dump_stack+0x18/0x28 [c0003c60] check_bug_trap+0x84/0xac [c0003de8] ProgramCheckException+0x160/0x1a0 [c0003260] ret_from_except_full+0x0/0x4c [c01a9f84] dma_alloc_init+0x44/0xa0 [c01a66a4] do_initcalls+0x54/0xfc [c0002260] init+0x2c/0xf4 [c000533c] kernel_thread+0x44/0x60 NET: Registered protocol family 16 JFFS2 version 2.2.

Can anybody explain the "dma_alloc_init"-error ? Best regards, Peter -----Original Message----- Hello! I gave the MPC885ADS support recently added by Andrei Konovalov a try - but no luck: booting 2.6.13-rc5 with u-boot 1.1.2 (tftpboot & bootm) hangs after uncompressing. Did anybody succeed with this? Applied were the following patches from patchwork.ozlabs.org: * 8xx_cpm_hostalloc * all fixes to fec.c The board boots an 2.4-Kernel just fine. Did i miss some patches for U-Boot? Best regards, Peter
