(2) you'd better take a look at doc of www.denx.de/... good luck for you! -----Original Message----- From: m.venkatraj@exgate.tek.com Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 12:35 PM Subject: ADS860 - unable to load kernel- Bad magic number I am a linux-newbie working on a parallel track on the MPC 860, on a ADS board. I am facing difficulty in getting the kernel to load. This is what I have done so far: - built a cross-toolchain using Dan Kegel's crosstool. - built u-boot-1.0.1 and flashed it to the board using BDI2000 - built linus-2.4.22, (with the below mentioned patch on last attempt). The compilation goes through fine, I get "vmlinux" on the top-dir, and also a vmlinux.gz in the arch/ppc/boot/images if I do a "make zImage". When I configure bootp, and bootup the board, u-boot comes up fine, the tftp download of the kernel image goes through fine too. Then I am stuck with a "Bad Magic Number". Some initial digup led me to a mismatched image header magic number. Could anyone please help me with how to go ahead? Am I missing something? Also thanks to everyone whose postings on this and other lists helped me get started! -----Original Message----- From: Xavier Miville [mailto:xmiville@oerlikon.ca] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 9:58 PM Subject: RE: PCI daughter card with USB on a 405GP You will need to apply the corresponding linuxppc patch (/pub/linux/kernel/ports/ppc/2.4) to 2.4.22. The zvmlinux doesn't seem to be built with only 2.4.22. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
