Dear all,
I get a IBM 405 GP evaluation board recently. After I compile the
toolchain and kernel 2.4.22 using the crosstools. I try to boot the kernel
on the board by u-boot. I follow the instruction of uboot to create a uImage
as follows:
powerpc-405-linux-gnu-objcopy -O binary -R .note -R .comment -S vmlinux
linux.bin
gzip -9 linux.bin
./mkimage -A ppc -O linux -T kernel -C gzip -a 0x00400000 -e
0x00400000 -n "test" -d linux.bin.gz uImage
and load the image by tftpboot. But after I type bootm, only the
following is displayed and the whole system hangs:
## Booting image at 00400000 ...
Image Name: test
Created: 2003-10-02 8:51:50 UTC
Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
Data Size: 612743 Bytes = 598.4 kB
Load Address: 00400000
Entry Point: 00400000
Verifying Checksum ... OK
Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK
<Hangs afterwards...>
I haven't modified any source yet. I don't know even it is needed.
Could anyone kindly tell me what's wrong about my steps? Thanks so much.
Regards,
Jacky
