Hi Wolfgang I could get 2.6.28 version up and running after using device tree blob. Also our customer is using Luan and our IT dept ordered Katmai.
So looks like the problem is solved for now (basically my company needs to look into alternative setups) Thanks a lot for your prompt help.

You probably did not load (and use) the device tree blob which is needed with recent (arch/powerpc based) kernel versions. > The config file that I sent before is provided by the customer.

This is obviously an old setup for old (arch/ppc only) kernel versions, and heavily crippl^H^H^H^H^H modified from the default environment. You might consider to restart from the default environment settings (probably even with a recent version of U-Boot - your's is too old and does not include full device tree support). On the other hand, I don;t see a reason why the old (arch/ppc based) kernel should not boot - except that it might be misconfigured for that board. Did you try any of the released (and well tested) kernel images on our FTP server?
