Hi all, I have a strange problem on a self-developed MPC5200B system (more or less like the Freescale "Lite" board). On that board, I use kernel 3.2.68 with my own machine init file, which is almost the same as for Lite (arch/powerpc/platforms/52xx/lite5200.c). Everything works just fine.
When I use 3.18.9 with the same init file modifications and compiled with more or less the same .config, plus an adjusted DTB (e.g. rename the "fsl,mpc5200b-psc-uart" entries to "fsl,mpc5200b-psc"), the boot process from u-boot simply hangs after: <snip> ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 01000000 ... Image Name: Linux-3.18.9 Created: 2015-03-30 7:23:52 UTC Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 1972101 Bytes = 1.9 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Verifying Checksum ... OK ## Flattened Device Tree blob at 01200000 Booting using the fdt blob at 0x1200000 Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK Loading Device Tree to 007fa000, end 007ff2d9 ... OK </snip> Any idea what goes wrong here? I recall that I used the same approach outlined above to move from 2.6.32 to 3.2, which worked immediately. Might my U-Boot be too old (I use 2009.03)? Thanks in advance, Albrecht.
