hi,
I have ported linux-2.6.20 in cutom board based on MPC860.Kernel with the KERNELBASE as default 0xc00000000.
uImage is downloaded at some address and booted with "bootm" command.Kernel is uncompressed and loaded at
0x00000000.All the kernel function is now having physical
address (e.g. 0x000020c8 instead of 0xc00020c8, which
is given by compiler).I think this required, to run kernel before MMU
is on, but how this change in assembled code happens.
Does u-boot do this when uncompressing and loading the kernel. Please comment.
thanks in advance.
