Mr, Denk

It might be, but I can not figure out what it is. I am hoping it is just a
kernel configuration mater.

I just have one icecube board (Lite5200 Ver 2.0), and I have 4 of our own
custom boards designed after the icecube. Right now I am testing on the
icecube board. I tried our boards but usb as mass storage is not working
there either.  

>Ummm... stupid question: is the green LED behind the USB connector on

There is one and it was off, I shorted out R164 and the led came on. Our
custom board takes care of this as well 


Which defconfig file should I use? 
I just tried the icecube_5200_CoralP_defconfig file but now the board is not
booting; it hangs right after this message:

"Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK"


Thanks, 

Orges

I assumed that outlook would do it automatically, but apparently it did not,
sorry about that.

I hit "reply" instead of "reply all" by mistake; sorry about that too, I
will not happen again.
