Hi. I'm trying to boot linux-2.4.22 on the est8260 board using U-boot-1.1.1, but the serial interface corrupts after this line comes up:
=> bootm ## Booting image at 00400000 ... Image Name: Linux 2.4.22 Created: 2004-08-10 15:55:04 UTC Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 523580 Bytes = 511.3 kB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Verifying Checksum ... OK Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK Memory BAT mapping: BAT2=16Mb, BAT3=0Mb, residual: 0Mb Linux version 2.4.22 (ltss001 at linux) (gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)) #3 .. Kernel command line: root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=192.168.0.1:/tftpboot/192.168.0.2 ip=192.168.0.2:192.168.0.1::255.255.255.0::off panic=1 ... CPM UART driver version 0.01 I have looked around and found that the next line should say something like ttyS00 at 0x8000 is a SCC But all I get is garbage like musical notes and square root signs streaming onto the terminal. I have tried changing the baud rate when this comes up to all the other options but I still don't read anything coherent. When configuring the kernel I tried just loading the est8260_config, then building without editing the menuconfig, when that didn't work I went to menuconfig > Character devices and fiddled around with various options in there but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sterren Latsky ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
