getty fails on custom mpc8260 board

    Hello fellow linuxppc'ers, I have a problem w/ linux crashing on my
custom mpc8260 board when init tries to call getty or bash and i'm
wondering if anyone can help me out.

    Im running ppcboot and hardhat linux 1.2, with the 2.4.0test2 kernel
and everything seems to be going fine until init tries to call getty for
tty1.. I changed inittab to try and call the bash shell by itself and it
crashed too.

    As you can see in the output, I have the debug statements enabled in
/drivers/char/tty_io.c, which dont help me out a whole lot.. You can
also see that because I have id:1:initdefault commented out in the
inittab, it asks me for a runlevel, and I'm able to enter it fine. then
it goes to getty and crashes, or if I enter 1 for the runlevel, it just
hangs as would be expected.    I'm also concerned about all though
/dev/cua messages, but i don't think they're causing my problem because
the serial i/o seems to be working fine.

    If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it a lot!
thanks

Kevin Fry
