Compatibility Problem between linux-2.4.25 and RedBoot

Compatibility Problem between linux-2.4.25 and RedBoot

Hi All,

I am working on AdderII-MPC875 evaluation board(preinstalled RedBoot 
Monitor) with Linux OS, I can use adderII_defconfig(in linux-2.4.25) to 
compile and link to build up the image, and I can load it at 
0x00380000, but it can't be executed. If I use its original image 
coming with this board, it seems to relocate to another address from 
0x00380000, and then decompress, execute, so is there anyone who can 
help me figure it out? any suggestion? Thanks.

Hi all,

Since my evaluation board based on MPC875 is pre-installed RedBoot 
Loader and Linux with this kit can be loaded and execute, but I want to 
try public powerpc linux, which can be loaded, but not execute. Dose 
any one know how to change it so that it is compatible with RedBoot? I 
checked the definition of struct bd_info{} is different, is it the 
shared struct by bootloader and Linux? How dose loader work with linux? 
Thanks.
