Hi,all
    I am trying to run linux2.6 on Xilinx ML403.I have builded and loaded zImage.initrd.elf successfully into the board and when the kernel was booting to the point initializing form ramdisk,I got the problem as follow.

      I configured bootloader like this:

      I don't know where the problem comes from and how to solve it.
      Any help from you is appreciated.Thank you!
