I finally managed to get a booting linuxppc-2.4 kernel and some console output. Now onto getting a working rootfs... For reference in case anybody tries this at home, the problems were: 1) arch/ppc/platforms/rpx8260.h defined it's own bd_info structure which was not consistent with u-boot. This caused the time settings to be wrong, which in turn caused the decrementer to be set to zero... "That's it man, game over man, game over, man!" 2) drivers/char/tty_io.c has a typo on the CPM2 support in console_init() that prevents it from working with anything but 8xx architectures - #if defined(CONFIG_8xx) || defined(CONFIG_CONFIG_CPM2_UART) + #if defined(CONFIG_8xx) || defined(CONFIG_CPM2_UART) Cheers, Jeff Angielski The PTR Group ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
