I'm not sure about the range settings of 0xfe000000. How do you get this?
localbus at fa200100 {
compatible = "fsl,mpc885-localbus", "fsl,pq1-localbus",
"simple-bus";
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <1>;
reg = <0xfa200100 0x40>;
ranges = <
0 0 0xfe000000 0x01000000 // I'm not sure about this?

I realized that. :-P The kernel booting was able to stop at
start_kernel(). I'm going to trace further.

I enabled this early debug feature but don't know this address change.
I'll try it later.
Thanks a lot, Scott.
