Markus, yes, thank you for your testing and debug efforts. > Too bad. Thanks for testing though. > > Adam & Victor, any ideas?

This will require you to recompile U-Boot and download it onto your board. To disable the DDR autocalibration code, in the include/configs/kilauea.h file, undef the "CONFIG_PPC4xx_DDR_AUTOCALIBRATION" definition and recompile U-Boot. Once we receive Stefan's Kilauea board we can debug his DDR autocalibration issue, which probably is a similar issue to what you are seeing on your board. We will keep you in the loop. As an aside I grabbed the top of git tree and tried it on all my Kilauea boards, including the latest board which supports (CPU=600MHz, PLB=200MHz) clocking and I can not get DDR autocalibration to fail. I also successfully tried the PPC405EX chip built-in bootstraps of (CPU=333MHz PLB=166MHz, CPU=400MHz PLB=200MHz) and the bootstrap EEPROM strapping of (CPU=533MHz PLB=177MHz).
