Sorry, not quite the latest kernel. 2.6.19 as distributed in ELDK 4.1, built for the MPC8555CDS, although the actual board is slightly different.
Here is the boot time output. U-boot succesfully enables the ethernet to get its kernel image from the TFTP server. ## Booting image at 01000000 ...

Which 2.6 kernel are you using? Also are you using arch/ppc or arch/powerpc? - k _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
