What "same" problem?  How are you loading and tracing the kernel?

The image certainly won't work without any bootloader, whether it
is PPCBoot or the code found in arch/ppc/mbx (or arch/ppc/boot/mbx
depending on your source base).  The kernel requires a bunch of
registers and information set up before it is called, and one of
those two methods must be used to ensure this happens.

I believe there is a working FADS port in the FSM Labs BitKeeper
sources.  If not, you can download the older 2.4.0-test2 LSP from
MontaVista and use it as a guide for updating a later kernel.  The
changes are very minor.
