Hi,

I'm trying to boot Linux on  AVNET 440gx eval board but no luck so far.
What I did are that I downloaded a plain 2.6.20 kernel from kernel.org,
configured with 440GX, OCOTEA target (I'm not sure OCOTEA is correct target),
then loaded the kernel image via tftp  and tried to boot with bootelf command.
But I had no output message from Linux.

I suspected setting of Linux serial console. So I changed the kernel parameter to
"ttyS0,19200" which I suppose correct becuase this is the minicom setting.
But still didn't work.

The board comes with u-boot 1.0.2 with some fixes.  I'm checking the u-boot
source code (might be some hint in there) and the serial device
initialization code in Linux.

Has anyone had experiece with Linux on AVNET 440GX board?
Any advise would be appreciated !
