Dear DavidM, I have other questions about the romfs.2.4.x.gz on the website http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/utilities/armulator/
1. What version of toolchain used to build the romfs.2.4.x? 2. What kind of vendor setting used to build the romfs.2.4.x? GDB/ARMulator or GDB/ARMulator-EB? 3. Any other particular setting in menuconfigs to affect the romfs.2.4.x? Thank you in advance for kindly replying. :-) Drag 2008/12/27 Yuan-Lung Li <dra...@gmail.com> > Dear all, > I have search the solution for this problem about 2 months... > Here is my environment: > > Toolchain: > arm-linux-tools-20070808.tar.gz fownloaded from > http://ftp.snapgear.org/pub/snapgear/tools/arm-linux/arm-linux-tools-20070808.tar.gz > > uClinux Distribution: > uClinux-dist-20080808.tar.gz downloaded from > http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/uClinux-dist-20080808.tar.bz2 > > Now I got stuck on the booting after /bin/init running.
