Now that that seems to work, I would like to get a newer version of the kernel working. I have tried unsucessfully with both the 2.3.18 kernel on the CVS server and the tarball of it that Dan put up for ftp. The problem is that after the kernel has been loaded into RAM at address 200000 and told to execute from address 210000, the processor just hangs with no output on the console. It doesn't even get to the "Linux/PPC load:" prompt. The process I just described was what I was told to do for 2.2.5 and it works just great. Is there a different method for the other kernel versions? Any ideas on where to go from here?
