Problems of Compiling Kernel with linux-2.4.27 and linux-2.6.17 for PowerPC405EP Board

[Zhou Rui]

Hi,
Yesterday I tried to compile kernel with linux-2.4.27 and linux-2.6.17 for PowerPC405EP board. Both of the kernel images were created successfully, but when I tested them in ram from u-boot with NFS used. Both of the images could not booted from ram. The two kernel .config files are attached.

For the 2.4.27 kernel, after running bootm in u-boot and "Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK" printed on the screen. There are
"vector: 200 at pc = c0197d4c, lr = c0197d40
msr = 1030, sp = c0181fb0 [c0181f00]
current = c0180020, pid = 0, comm = swapper
mon>".
It seemd the booting process had entered a monitor, but I didn't know what it was.

For the 2.6.17 kernel, after running bootm in u-boot, the booting process stops at "Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK". No other output after this sentence on the screen.

Would you like to give some advice about this? Thanks a lot.
