you mean it's not the problem of my console configuration but the u-boot
program?
But I thought it might at least output some message of the board before it can
output the prompt "=>",is that right? Listing all my chang in the TQM860L.h
may help:

#define	CONFIG_CLOCKS_IN_MHZ	50 /*50Mhz osc connected to 860_EXTCLK*/
#define CONFIG_BOARD_TYPES	0     /*It's a simple board ,supported?*/
#define CFG_OR0_PRELIM	0xfff80920  /*boot flash is AM29LV040B,512k*/
#define CFG_BR0_PRELIM	0x40000401  /* magic numbers of my modify take
                                       /*reference from a working vxworks
BSP's
                                       /* romInit.s of the same board*/

/* #define SDRAM_BASE2_PRELIM	0x00000000*/
#define SDRAM_BASE4_PRELIM	0x00000000  /*cs4 is sdram*/

#define CFG_OR4_PRELIM	0xfe000f60
#define CFG_BR4_PRELIM	0x00000081

#define CFG_MAMR_11COL	0x10924111 /*11 col,here is the value I write to mamr
in tqm8xx.c*/

#define CONFIG_SCC1_ENET	1 /*should add a number?*/
/*#define CONFIG_FEC_ENET*/ /*no FEC*/

and in tqm8xx.c,I did like this:

1.changed upm_table according to my sdram;
2.modify the register's value in the function initdram()

:-),I am trying to learn,would u  recommend some helpful material about
u-boot?

I know that,and I will try to persuade my "boss".
