OPB vs. PLB DDR Memory Controller

Hello,
I used secretlabs kernel tree and build my hardware once with the obp
uart and once with the uart lite and compiled in the coresponding
drivers into the linux kernel.

        avail ram:     00496000 7C9E2378

        Linux/PPC load: root=/dev/nfs rw ip=on
        Uncompressing Linux...done.
        Now booting the kernel

As you can see the embedded boot loader works, but the kernel does not
produce any output. I wonder if I have to configure Linux that it has a
OPB Memory Controller instead of a PLB Memory Controller. I used the
ml403 Option in my kernel config.
