If you look at 'embedded_notes' it tells you to load the image at 0x200000. The code on the front of the zImage file will uncompress and load the kernel starting at memory address 0. You have to allow a few hundred Kbytes for this to happen, and allocate some working space for the kernel. In fact, the explicit commands for the BSE-IP are there...... The image doesn't really care where it is loaded, so long as it is above about 1.5 Mbytes or so....... -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
