I just began doing some tests to see if uClinux could fit for my next

skilled on Linux, I've used it in the past but in the last 7 years I
worked on different platforms.
In this moment I'm doing some tests with the ColdFire port. 
The distribution I'm using is Ubunt 7.04 (kernel version

2.6.20-15-generic), so I've downloaded and installed the following files
from uClinux site:
- Full source code uClinux-dist-20070130.tar.gz
- Toolchain m68k-uclinux-tools-20061214.sh
- Arnewsh 5206 binary image image-an5206-big-2706.bin

and I've downloaded also the Motorola Coldfire 5206 Emulator
(coldfire-0.3.1).

The Emulator seems to work fine with the binary image downloaded from
the site, but if I configure uClinux for the same board, following the
steps make xconfig - make dep - make, the Emulator doesn't work with the
resulting image. Do you have any idea why ?


What kernel version in the dist did you build with?

If you can try each of 2.0.x, 2.4.x and 2.6.x that would
be interresting to see if none/one/two work.

Regards
Greg

Actually I was working with kernel version 2.6.x, kernel 2.4.x works,
kernel 2.0.x gives errors while compiling ...

Can you try 2.6.x again, setting the RAM configuration option
to a fixed size?

(The 2.6.x code uses a different RAM detection scheme, maybe it
is buggy for the Arnewsh 5206...)
