Rick,
I have custom board with DRAM starting at 0x00000000 - 0x20000000 so I could
not load it to 0x80000000 since I do not have that much memory. I noticed in
your report that the load address is 0x80000000 but the kernel image was
built with:
Load Address: 80008000
Entry Point:  80008000.
I was wondering what does your bootm command line looks like and if yours
bootargs look like mine?
