hi, thanx very much for your help. After long working hours, i succeeded in loading the kernel "2.4.18" to an sbc8260. i have tried mounting the filesystem following karim's boot. i have written a boot script (p270 & P275) but for some reasons the kernel hangs after "Starting kswapd". this is what i get.
