evolution! kernel 2.6.11 has run on the board with u-boot 1.1.4, also, at early booting time LEDs are disabled due to MMU on and off. so i tried to turn LEDs on after start_kernel function, wow, blinking! that is before start_kernel will be done successfully. then i modified registers mapping in immap_cpm2.h and configure smc1 as serial. console worked normally. booting info as following U-Boot 1.1.4 (Apr 2 2009 - 20:05:19)
