Hello, I am working on an embedded project with the u-boot and Minnowboard max. With compressed kernel (bzImage) everything works fine, I want to check the performance with uncompressed kernel (vmlinux).
So for creating the image.fit file I followed the instructions as per the file x86-fit-boot.txt except that I have changed the compression to none in the image.its file since I want to check the uncompressed Kernel data = /incbin/("./vmlinux.bin"); type = "kernel"; arch = "x86"; os = "linux"; compression = "none"; The bootcmd is "bootcmd=fatload mmc 1:1 0x02000000 image.fit ; bootm 0x02000000". Now I am seeing that the start up hangs after printing the commands starting kernel ... and the time summary. Do you have any idea why it is happening? reading imagefit 14566018 bytes read in 317 ms (43.8 MiB/s) ## Loading kernel from FIT Image at 02000000 ...

I have seen in the document that it doesn't support for 64 bit kernel and the document link given is now not accessible. http://wiki.osdev.org/64-bit_Higher_Half_Kernel_with_GRUB_2 Mit Freundlichen Grüßen VinothKumar +49 1798909072 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
