A little update on my problems. Apparently the problem was the u-boot command I used to boot : I used : tftp 100000 mpc5200/uImage; tftp 300000 mpc5200/pRamdisk;bootm 100000 300000 And now I use : tftp 200000 mpc5200/uImage; tftp 400000 mpc5200/pRamdisk;bootm 200000 400000 and it works just fine ... Apparently when the kernel was too big, the area near 100000 is probably used by u-boot in some way, maybe during decompression and it doesnt work. I've check with multiple different memory tests that the concerned memory region is fine. So it is a software issue. Maybe u-boot should give some warning about that ( if it's the cause, not yet sure ). But that's off topic here. Now, I'm just looking forward for new BestComm code, to get AC97 and IDE DMA running ( quite slow and CPU intensive right now ... ).
