I have just received my BSE IP-Engine and have compiled the 2.2.5 kernel for it. The compilation went successfully and, after setting up the IP address etc on the board and getting my TFTP server running, I downloaded the kernel to the board (via Ethernet so I know it is working). Since the user space starts at 0x4000, I loaded the zImage there. When I tried to run it, the BSE board froze. I found that I had downloaded an old kernel from linuxppc.cs.nmt.edu for the BSE board and when I tried it, I got the same results. Does it matter to the kernel at what address in memory it is loaded and if so, where can I change this is the linker? I have set up my NFS server with the mbxroot.min files in it. I am not 100% sure that this is working but am I correct in assuming that I should see the beginning of the kernel booting before it requires any files from the NFS server? Any ideas on how to proceed from here? Does somebody have a known working kernel for this board which I can try?
