Hi. A got a similar problem as described by LiuTao, my custom MPC823 board won't display the bash prompt at start up. Is there anybody who got a solution to this problem?
I tried like LiuTao to define "SERIAL_DEBUG_INTR" in uart.c, and I got the same result: Lots of "THRE...rs_interrupt_single(0, 2)...end." on the console. I have successfully used the ramdisk image on a RPXL board, so that should be ok. Here are the console messages: loaded at: 00200000 0020B1F0 relocated to: 00100000 0010B1F0 board data at: 001001C4 001001E0 relocated to: 00200100 0020011C zimage at: 00206000 002383D8 initrd at: 002383D8 002B2E77 avail ram: 002B3000 00800000 Linux/PPC load: Uncompressing Linux...done.
