Hello -
Per a previous suggestion from this list, I rsynced the linuxppc-2.4
kernel sources from MontaVista and modified the kernel to run on my custom
ppc405/VirtexII Pro based system with U-Boot as the bootloader.
When I try to use the SystemACE device as the root filesystem, the kernel
crashes with a sig 11. Looking at the 'oops' output it appears the
SystemACE driver may be to blame. The crash is random - sometimes I get
all the way to login as root and then things crash on a file copy or a
file read.
Before I start digging deeper, is anyone running a VirtexIIPro based
system with the root filesystem in the CF card attached to a SystemACE?
I'm wondering if I really have the best kernel and SystemACE driver.
BTW, I'm developing the hardware design using Xilinx EDK 7.02i.
Thanks,
Keith
