Hello everyone!
Trying to boot linux 2.6.12 on an MPC8245 board from MEN (a12) with MenMon  
firmware. Nothing is printed to the console (ttyS0), but the __log_buf  
contains this:

<4>entering platform_init.

adding 'nobats' to the command line changes the boot output slightly (I  
then get two oops).

In order to get the whole output I had to turn off caching, maybe this has  
influenced the boot process.. with dcache on, the __log_buf is practically  
empty.

Has anyone managed to boot 6.12 on this board successfully?

Thanks in advance,
Carl.
