Thanks for helping about the elf issue, I got it running. The problem was that I wasn't using the proper file produced by make !
Now I have a strange and probably simple problem that the Initial kernel command string is incorrect. I want, and I have set in the .config: CONFIG_CMDLINE="console=ttyUL0,115200 rw root=/dev/nfs ip=bootp" But when my kernel boots it uses: console=ttyUL0 root=/dev/ram I can check: strings arch/powerpc/boot/simpleImage.virtex405-ml405.elf | grep console Vconsole=ttyUL0 root=/dev/ram Also my previous kernel would wait for 2 seconds at the beginning to allow me to change the initial command string via the serial port, but now it just runs right through. How can I enable this option ? On the plus side it boots in .5 seconds !
