Hi,
I am getting the same message
blob>boot
Uncompressing the kernel.........done.Booting the kernel.
and here it hangs.
I have disabled frame buffer and passed the initrd parameters as u said.But
the
same kernel works properly with Angel.One thing was that when the kernel was
loaded
the LED D8 was constantly blinking and D9 very little.So earlier also the
LED's did not blink
But I have not upgraded the kernel I will try it now.But atleast the kernel
must boot know?
Does it have anything to do with the kernel parameter passing?
Thanx,
hari\
