I tried also ur second suggestion trying to boot through ramdisk, with rootfilesystem in ramdisk.image.gz and building kernel in pImage both in Compact Flash. It is working fine ( I have no idea of the configuration and what args are passed by U_BOOt to kernel) .. does this mean that there is problem with root filesystem on my remote computer or does this mean there could be a problem connecting to the remote computer (Probably problem with BESTCOM as pointed by Wolfgang Denk) ????? I want to have the root filesystem on the remote computer instead on ramdisk because i need to add applications into the root filesystem in runtime. ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
