I am using u-boot 2009.08 version.
?
Issue has been resolved.
Problem:
I am using Dma to initialize DDR and minidma required cache bit enable for 
DDR, because of cache enabled I was getting lmb->memory.region[i].size = 0 and 
end-up with an error "ramdisk - allocation error" 
Solution:
I have disabled the DDR cache just after DDR initialization by DMA.
?

Dear Ronny D,

Which exact version of U-Boot are you running?? And which board
configuration is this?? Is this mainline code, or some out-of-tree
port?

Please provide the complete boot log with all commands you entered,
full, information about Linux kernel and ramdisk image (Output of the
respective "iminfo" commands), and all U-Boot messages.


Best regards,
