kernel on MPC8260ADS - character losing

[Goddeeris Frederic]

 I think this is a known issue. If I am not mistaken, you will find
multiple threads about it.
Do you use SMC2?

Subject: kernel on MPC8260ADS - character losing


Hello!

I'm trying to run 2.4.4 on MPC8260ADS.
PpcBoot works fine. After booting the kernel image
(Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK) there is emitting of weird
characters; losing every second one, some are doubled as follows:

Did anybody experience such effect with serial port?
