Hi at all


Since two week I have this Problem and can't= solve it. I allready read DULG and search in
Mailinglists but I can't r= un linux. Perhaps had the same problem and can help me.
My Problem:
A= fter I load the uImage (uImage at 0x00400000 )
from server, I try to run in with command bootm.
=3D> bootm 00400= 000
 Booting image at  00400000...
   Image = Name:   Linux-2.4.24-pre2
   Created:  &nb= sp;   2006-01-19   6:25:03 UTC
   Image Ty= pe:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    700730 Bytes =3D 684.3 kB
=    Load Address: 00000000
   Entry Point:  0000= 0000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
   Uncompressin= g Kernel Image ... OK
 
 don't  start kernel
  my board  :
  sdram  16m  0----ffffff
  flash     4m   ffc00000 ---ffffff= f
 
routing, so my current assumptio= n is
that I either have VIRTEX_UART defined improperly or I have the ppc= _sys
data structure created wrong.

 &nbs= p;     It would be really nice if the was either some c= omments in
xparameters.h or in the Documents directory explaining what t= he Linux
xparameters values are so that it it would be easy to know what= items
from xparameters_xxx.h have to be mapped or redefined.

 &= nbsp;     Where can we get more information on what is = happening here ?
I started the E12 port with most info in xparameters, but I have beenmoving towards getting things passed in board_info. I am not using
u-b= oot as the E12 has a general purpose elf loader, and it was easier to
add a fee lines for Linux. Regardless I would like to be compatible withwhatever is coming - maybe even ahead fo the curve. The e12 is just thefirst of a family of products - the e14 already exists. There maybe
revisions of each at different speeds with different memory.
