Re: Booting Linux using a PlanetCore BootLoader

[annamaya <annamaya@yahoo.com>]

I am using the Linux Kernel 2.4.24-pre2. I included
support for this board and created an embed_config()
routine to pass in the correct board information. I am
now able to see the "relocation" messages by zImage
and it now halts with the message "Now booting the
kernel". I see that it is now hung in some delay
routine which was called from a panic routine. I am
working on trying to figure this out.

>go 210000

loaded at:     00210000 002D426C
relocated to:  00400000 004C426C
board data at: 004C1130 004C115C
relocated to:  004052D8 00405304
zimage at:     00405810 004C0CC4
avail ram:     004C5000 10000000

Linux/PPC load: root=/dev/nfs rw ip=on
Uncompressing Linux...done.
Now booting the kernel
