FW: problem in booting kernel

[bhupinder sahran]

Hi

console=ttyS0 is good but why again console=tty.
That might be the issue.
When u r paasing parameters from ppcboot, why console
is eqated two times.

U should only say console=ttyS0 , 9600

So console=tty is not correct............
Try out this...
