My problem had to do with the fact that I was not sending my flash device information in the bd_info structure and therefore, jffs2 was crapping out. Once I turned include this info in bd_info, the kernel came up just fine and started to boot.
I am now trying to do an NFS mount of the root file system. Looks like the EP8280 uses LXT971A PHY device. I see that support for this device already exists in the driver. But I am not sure which GPIO lines are being used for MII_MDIO and MII_MDCK. I am also not sure about the PHY_INTERRUPT line. Does anyone have this info? Thanks much. --- Sam Song <samlinuxppc at yahoo.com.cn> wrote: > annamaya <annamaya at yahoo.com> wrote: > > now able to see the "relocation" messages by > zImage > > and it now halts with the message "Now booting the > > kernel".
