Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-linuxppc-embedded@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: Hi, Now I am trying to embed linux onto our MPC860-based board. I have some questions which may be solved by you embed-linux gurus.... What I want to do is the following: 1 Initialize the MPC860 CPU , memory, serial port, enet port . 2 Download the linux powerpc kernel (which I have cross-compiled on my X86 box) from the TFTP server to RAM on board. 3 run the kernel. Now the 1 and 2 step work well, but when I download the kernel to RAM on board, It just cannot run.Do you know why? How can I programme to make it run? Since the kernel is a compressed image (zvmlinux), need I make some codes to decompress it and then run it? if so, how to do it? Thank you very much :-)) Merry christmas & happy year. dony ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
