Well control has passed to the linux kernel, so you need to start diagnosing Linux - U-Boot works fine now ;) > The log as under: > > ====================================================================== > $bootm 83a00000 ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 83a00000 ... > Image Name: Linux > Created: 2010-06-25 9:13:44 UTC > Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) > Data Size: 2611097 Bytes = 2.5 MiB > Load Address: 80008000 > Entry Point: 80008000 > Verifying Checksum ...

Is the "console" setting correct? I.e. are you connected to ttyS2? Does U-Boot pass the correct machine number (check with bdinfo) for the kernel you use? If you can reset the board at this time, you can try to inspect the kernel logbuffer for output which Linux produced but which never reached your serial connection: http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/LinuxPostMortemAnalysis Cheers Detlev -- WARNING: The external boundaries of India as depicted in map(s) are neither correct nor authentic.
