I'm not a kernel expert and don't know what failure you are seeing here, but I might observe that 2.6.19 and .20 are two years old, and 2.6.11 is more than 3 years old. If you think we, collectively, haven't improved things in that time period, please, complain about 2.6.11, .19, and .20. If on the off chance you think things *might* have gotten better due to a *bit* of development effort over the past three years, you might try installing a modern U-Boot and a modern Kernel. Thanks, jdl I would strongly recommend switching to ELDK from denx.de and the latest released (or tip-o-the-tree) u-boot. This will allow you to build and boot the latest kernel with a flattened device tree (FDT). ELDK: http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/ELDK http://ftp.denx.de/pub/eldk/ Specifically: http://ftp.denx.de/pub/eldk/4.2/ppc-linux-x86/iso/ u-boot: make MPC8360EMDS_HOST_66_config make linux: Start with: arch/powerpc/configs/83xx/mpc836x_mds_defconfig Trying to use an old u-boot and old toolset with a recent kernel isn't worth the headaches. The ToT supports the MPC8360EMDS directly. Best regards, gvb ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
