It is physical address at this moment. Address translation is disabled automatically (MSR[IR, DR] = [0, 0]) because of TLB Miss Exception and Instrunction Storage Exception. > > Do you have enough DRAM to cover that? Some of those boards only come > with 32MiB of DRAM. My board only has 32MB DRAM. Do you mean 32MB is not enough for that? The same codes can run well in a PPC440EP (Yosemite Board) which owns 256MB DRAM. At the beginning of my work, I thought memory size may be the cause of failure. But I did not know how to demonstrate it. So if the limitation of 32MB DRAM leads to the failure, are there any methods for the codes to solve it? Thank you very much for your reply!
