(Pardon the repost. Due to the listserver hickup, I wanted to be sure)
I am having a problem booting a 2.4 kernel and ramdisk on Assabet. The
kernel and ramdisk work well together when I boot using angelboot. I can
see Tux on the LCD and have a login prompt (that works) on the serial port
of the Assabet. When I login, I can run the 'hello world' app that I
compiled on the host.
Enter bootldr... When I attempt to boot using bootldr, I get Tux on the
LCD, I get a login prompt similar to "(none) Login:". I can enter root as a
user, but I get an illegal instruction, a few registers dumped, and the
login prompt reappears.
The version of bootldr is from the handhelds cvs on 23-mar-2001. I am using
the following parameters with bootldr:
'os=linux' 'copy_ramdisk=1' 'ramdisk_addr=0xc0800000'
I've tried a few variations of the linux_args parameters but It does not
seem to change the results.
I did modify the table in btflash.c to get the partition sizes large enough
to handle my kernel at 635KB, and the ramdisk of 2.4MB. My Assabet board is
Phase 5 with an Intel 28F128J3A flash, and 32MB RAM.
I believe that I am close, but am missing something that may be obvious to
someone having gone down this path.
Thank you,
John Drago
