*Hello,
I have an AMCC 405gp board on which runs u-boot. I try to boot the Linux
Kernel via network but can not. I download uImage using DHCPD/TFTP. Here is
the minicom console output:*
Type "run flash_nfs" to mount root filesystem over NFS
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0
ENET Speed is 100 Mbps - FULL duplex connection (EMAC0)
Using ppc_4xx_eth0 device
TFTP from server 192.168.1.210; our IP address is 192.168.1.220
Filename 'uImage'.
Load address: 0x200000

## Booting image at 00200000 ...
Image Name: Linux-2.6.25-rc7-00000-ga1ba6f0
Created: 2008-04-07 12:32:44 UTC
Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
Data Size: 1167872 Bytes = 1.1 MB

Verifying Checksum ... OK
Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK
*Here the console is frozen. It's the point where u-boot ends up and the
kernel code starts. I think I have a mistake in addressing. I don't have
sufficient knowledge about uImage format and the kernel compilation process.
I followed the steps through the ELDK documantation from DENX software for
cross-compiling the linux kernel as below: *
bash$ make mrproper
bash$ make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- walnut_defconfig
bash$ make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_4xx- uImage
*Could anyone help me solving the boot problem?*
