Hi at all


Since two week I have this Problem and can't solve it. I allready read DULG
and search in
Mailinglists but I can't run linux. Perhaps had the same problem and can
help me.
My Problem:
After I load the uImage (uImage at 0x00400000 )
from server, I try to run in with command bootm.
=> bootm 00400000
 Booting image at  00400000...
   Image Name:   Linux-2.4.24-pre2
   Created:      2006-01-19   6:25:03 UTC
   Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    700730 Bytes = 684.3 kB
   Load Address: 00000000
   Entry Point:  00000000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
   Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK

 don't  start kernel
  my board  :
  sdram  16m  0----ffffff
  flash     4m   ffc00000 ---fffffff
