No, it's really equivalent, that's why I used the same configuration.

I see. I thought the right place for this kind of question was the
LKML. I will use linux-arm-kernel for future issues about Linux on ARM.

Anyway, eventually I found out that this is a bug of U-Boot (see
later) and not of Linux.

Right. U-Boot does not pass the right value when compiled for the
AT91RM9200DK board... I'm going to send an email to the U-Boot ML to
fix this bug.

Many thanks to all,
