[anand_12 <anand_12@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all, 

I am trying to get uClinux booting on our memec spartan 2E 600LC(microblaze) board.The bootlog is as shown below :

Sash command shell (v 
---------------BOOTLOG END-------------------------------- 


After printing "Sash command shell(v" it hangs...I am not able to figure out what is happening...can anyone help me out with this....??...atfirst i thought it could just be 
some stdout fflush'ing(because of which i am not able to see the display on the hyperterm) issue...but it seems there is something more to it....any help would be welcome 


...the contents of my "/etc/inittab" file are : 
------------------my /etc/inittab start--------------------- 
#inet:unknown:/bin/inetd 
#flt:unknown:/bin/flatfs 
ttyS0:unknown:/bin/sh 

-------------------------end------------------------------ 

besides I am running microblaze at 50 Mhz but bogomips computed is just 2.85...does this indicate a timer problem?.... 



Thanks and Regards
