I think that my problem is in the driver. Here is why ->
I saved a linux kernel into flash from RAM.
I ran the kernel from RAM, it worked.
I reset and copied a kernel from flash iinto RAM.
I executed again, kernel did not work.

I think that the driver I wrote has problems.
I am working on it right now,
