xilinx linux on a XUPV2P

Hello everybody,

I am trying to get the latest Kernel (2.6.25-rc9) from git.xilinx.com running on
a XUPV2P board. I generated the hardware using JH Kelms step by step list,
skipping points 6-8 and replacing point 9 by a more modern version of doing
this. When I boot the system.ace from the CF card, the bootloader talks to me
over the RS232, but as soon as it tries to boot the kernel it hangs up.
I had 2.6.18-rc3 which I got from somebody else running this way. The reason I
intend to change is the UARTLITE driver, which seems to be included in the
latest kernel tree.
I use Platform Studio 9.1.02i which I also used for the 2.6.18 Kernel.
Has anybody yet got this to work out with 9.1.02i ??
Would it be possible for somebody to give a dummy like me the steps you took to
get it working on your board? I'm really lost here. Thanks!


Thanks in advance!

Sounds like it's not finding the console.
If you're using the uartlite, you need to specify console=3DttyUL0 on =
the
kernel command line.
