[U-Boot] Linux hangs after Starting kernel ...message

[Andrejs Cainikovs <AndrejsC@GlobalAutomationSystems.com>]

Sorry, i have no ideas where your problem is related.
At the start i was thinking this could be the memory related problem, 
but apperantly not...
Maybe someone in this list will have similar experience.

Kind regards,
Andrejs Cainikovs
