EST 8260 board, Kernel version 2.4.5 + PPC patches, strace from Hardhat Linux 1.2 release.
1. We found that with the 2.4.5 kernel + patches, some important configuration numbers (BRG, CPM clocks) were mismatches, in that embed_config put them in Hz and other parts of the Linux kernel wanted them in Mhz. Once we fixed these issues, the kernel actually booted!! 2. Once booted and NFS mounting a root partition, we ran strace on ls, which worked. We then ran strace on inetd, which spewed out a few lines and then hung the kernel hard. No oops on console, just hung. Any ideas on the hang? Could it be an strace/linux mismatch or something?
