kernel boot on mpc8245

[Yuji Nishimura]

Hi,

I was some experience for similar problem on past time. It was happened
on kernel porting process (to other board).
For my problem, It caused by ppc_md.calibrate_decr =
todc_calibrate_decr; . i forgot to initialize external real time clock(
so rtc was stopped). that means it does not work and stop on same
point.... If you use another calibrate_decr (based on bus clock or
another clock), maybe it caused by other problem...

Best Regards,
