By "porting", I mean adding a set of code that reflect the unique characteristics of your custom board. > I copied the ebony bsp to different location and did changes to boot on the > custom board.

Hrm, without knowing your custom board I can't really comment on the potential source of something that is specific to your board. You can try enabling early boot text messages. Hopefully it still works on 440, I heard a rumor that it might be broken which would require some changes to head_440.S. An easier path is, of course, using a hardware debugger (BDI) to point you to where you are dying...I usually just dump logbuf before the console is inited so I can read the buffered oops message. > I commented the ioremap of RTC, and the definitions of > ppc_md.set_rtc_time = todc_set_rtc_time; > > ppc_md.get_rtc_time = todc_get_rtc_time; > > still the same problem. Should I hv to do something else also. You need to get rid of time_init, set_rtc_time, get_rtc_time, nvram_read_val, nvram_write_val too. You *will* get an oops from a machine check if you even have todc_time_init enabled...it will be attempting to read from some bogus location.
