Message-ID: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: u-boot@lists.denx.de Hi, Hope you all had a great Xmas and New Years! :) I managed to get linux to visibly start executing through smc1 - it turns out that I had chosen the standard generic serial support option, when it was in fact, non-standard... oops! A new year, new problem... i'm afraid :( Here's a short listing of what I see at bootup : ----------------------------------------------------- ## Booting image at 01000000 ...

Now, I'm not too familiar with what is supposed to happen next - but according to the output that i had on the fads860 board (i'm currenlty working on a custom design, mpc860T board), I am supposed to get something like: ----------------------------------------------------- Tue Jan 7 11:23:43 2003 VFS: busy inodes on changed media. mount: Mounting /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 on /mnt/idedisk failed: No such file or directory Caught SIGHUP Please press Enter to activate this console. /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 VFS: busy inodes on changed media.. /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1 BusyBox v0.60.3 (2002.07.16-02:05+0000) Built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. root:/# ----------------------------------------------------- I can ping and telnet my target (sometimes) and i can get something like the above - however, i have to login and exit telnet to type anything at the prompt. Now, each time I do a "date" , I get the exact same response - i.e., my RTC seems to have halted. I don't get it... I can do "date" in PPCBoot and my seconds change. I put in some register dumps and I get: TBSCR: 0x00000103 RTCSC: 0x00000013 RTC: 0x5fffc058 PISCR: 0x00000004 SCCR: 0x03800000 how do i get my clock to tick?? Thanks in advance, My Hong Vuong
