booting 2.6 kernel on ML403

[Ming Liu]

Hi Pradeep,

>   As soon as i apply the sysace driver and temac drivers and copy the 
xparameters_ml300.h (from EDK) to xparameters_ml403.h all i get is this... 
meaning kernel hangs after displaying "Now booting the kernel".

I have experienced this before. But in my condition, I applied both ACE and 
Temac patches. Ameet said it's a problem of the kernel and the kernel just 
lost the configuration information. So just "make proper" and reconfigure 
your kernel and recompile it. In my condition, it helps. I don't know if it 
is useful to solve your problem. Just try it.

Yesterday i tried root=/dev/xsysace2 rw and creating block device files in 
/dev of the CF card. But it ran into the same problem.Is there a sysace 
driver patch that i can apply without applying the TEMAC driver patch?

Don't try root=/dev/xsysace2. In Ameet's driver, he defined as xsa2. So 
just keep consistent with the source code. 

Also, in his website, there are patches which are used without Temac. They 
are not labeled with -after-temac. 

>   So far i was using the EDK 8.1 SP2 (latest) which has the IP core TEMAC 
version 3.00. Now i downgraded to EDK 8.1 to get the version 2.00 (please 
see John Bonesio's post).

I am using TEMAC 1.00. The 3.00 version is totally different with 1.00. So 
I don't know if it is one reason about your problem.

Ming
