That indicates a haret success. It's from the code at: http://git.linuxtogo.org/?p=groups/haret/haret.git;a=blob;f=src/linboot.cpp;h=d44ea116e2b67d8a6ee089e9050e9f238416a38e;hb=HEAD#l245 > Noise comes un on the screen now. Did you recompile your kernel with the new start of memory address? If the kernel doesn't know the new memory range, I think it will just relocate itself to the top of memory. > Thanks for you help.

I've used irda ports for debugging (but most new devices don't have that either). Otherwise, I think the arm list is probably the best place to ask. -Kevin _______________________________________________ Haret mailing list Haret@handhelds.org https://handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/haret
