I have exactly the same problem with my custom board using an 8260. At every 5-10 times I start the kernel, it hangs on 'Calibrating delay loop...' for about 1 minute, and then yields the same result (130.66 BogoMips). I begun to try to debug that problem, but without any success yet. :-( I've searched through the mailing lists, but did not find anything of interest. This problem is very annoying and I really want to fix it! -------------------------------------------- Jean-Denis Boyer, B.Eng., System Architect Mediatrix Telecom Inc. 4229 Garlock Street Sherbrooke (Qu?bec) J1L 2C8 CANADA (819)829-8749 x241 -------------------------------------------- ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
