Where you want to load the kernel from determines the other initialization work you need to do. Alternately, have you looked at PMON? It may provide everything you need for a MIPS-based system. -- ------------------------------------------------- Justin Wojdacki justin.wojdacki@analog.com (408) 350-5032 Communications Processors Group -- Analog Devices
