I have made some progress, but I am now stuck on another problem. I am using a lmo 2.6.30 kernel, using the defconfig configuration, with minor tweaks to get the IDE and EXT3 support working. The boot process works correctly until it reaches userland: | hda: max request size: 128KiB | hda: 78165360 sectors (40020 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=65535/16/63 | hda: cache flushes not supported | hda: hda1 hda2 | eth0 (sb1250-mac): not using net_device_ops yet | sb1250-mac.0: registered as eth0 | eth0: enabling TCP rcv checksum | eth0: SiByte Ethernet at 0x10064000, address: 00:02:4c:fe:51:e0 | eth1 (sb1250-mac): not using net_device_ops yet | sb1250-mac.1: registered as eth1 | eth1: enabling TCP rcv checksum | eth1: SiByte Ethernet at 0x10065000, address: 00:02:4c:fe:51:e1 | usbmon: debugfs is not available | ohci_hcd: USB 1.1 'Open' Host Controller (OHCI) Driver | TCP cubic registered | NET: Registered protocol family 17 | NET: Registered protocol family 15 | RPC: Registered udp transport module. | RPC: Registered tcp transport module. | kjournald starting.

This is with /sbin/init, but I get the exact same problem with /bin/sh. Also the file is found, as otherwise the message is different. The same partition when used with an older kernel (2.6.18) works perfectly. I have the problem with both big and little endian, and with and without SMP support. Does anyone is able to run a recent kernel on such a board ? If yes, could you please share the configuration file? Thanks in advance.
