Hi again, I just found another thing I am a bit confused about. I am using MCF532x target (actually MCF5373L, but apart from few peripherals this is the same) and just had some strange kernel startup failures with the linux-2.6.x kernel of uClinux-dist-20071107.
I found that the kernel always got stuck in _copy_romfs in linux-2.6.x/arch/m68knommu/platform/5307/head.S There is some block of code that seems to handle something like an initial ROMFS that is included when CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is set. However, CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is already needed for mounting a "normal" ROMFS on an MTD device and thus not necessarily means there is something like a filesystem (as my assembler knowledge is quite poor I do not even claim to understand where the "from"-address for copying comes from...). So the question is: - is there some other config option needed that should be evaluated here? - or is there some memory initialization needed that my bootloader (U-Boot) should perform in order for this "initial ROMFS" to be skipped? Funny that I just fell over this while struggling with my initrd setup... :-) Regards, Wolfgang _______________________________________________ uClinux-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/listinfo/uclinux-dev This message was resent by [email protected] To unsubscribe see: http://mailman.uclinux.org/mailman/options/uclinux-dev
