           Summary: Xilinx ML403 does not boot
    Kernel Version: 2.6.19.1
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
             Owner: platform_ppc-32@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
         Submitter: BSowislo@gmx.de


Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur:
I only tried out 2.6.19.1
Distribution:
kernel.org
Hardware Environment:
Xilinx ML403 board
Software Environment:
PPC crosscompiler on Centos linux i386
Problem Description:

a ramdom number (most likely 0x00000000)
is displayed as ramsize at the boot console:

Now booting the kernel

loaded at:     00400000 004DF13C
board data at: C01D16F8 C01D1710
relocated to:  00404040 00404058
zimage at:     00404E39 004DC857
avail ram:     004E0000 00000000

Linux/PPC load: console=ttyS0,9600
Uncompressing Linux...oops... out of memory
pause
done.
Now booting the kernel

reason:
board info is not returned from call to embed_config() in
arch/ppc/boot/simple/embed_config.c
caller: routine arch/ppc/boot/simple/misc_embedded.c, load_kernel()

first solution:
I removed the weak declaration of embed_config() in
arch/ppc/boot/simple/misc_embedded.c to force
the use of the procedure defined within 
arch/ppc/boot/simple/embed_config.c

Steps to reproduce:
use the arch/ppc/configs/ml403_defconfig as .config
for creating the kernel
