Re: [microblaze-uclinux] Creating 2.6 kernel on Spartan 3E500 under EDK

I've worked on trying to get petalinux working on my Spartan 3E500 RevD starter kit.

I'm running a CentOS 3 system with VMware under windows. The problem I'm having is that for some reason the kernel wont boot up after completed download. I followed the guide for the Spartan 3E500 RevC and using the reference design followed with the petalinux-v0.20-rc3.tar.gz download from the site. I can create the hardware just fine and I've tested the kernel files prebuilt for this board (which also is included in the petalinux package). If I use the included kernel image the system boots up just fine no problem at all. But when I try to create my own kernel using the included scripts as followed the guide the system boots but comes to an abrupt halt and stalls. I've looked into if the autoconfig file where copied correctly and it is. The kernel is created with no errors which I can detect and saved in /tftpboot directory.

I'm just getting out of ideas why this happens.

I took a look in the make menuconfig and tried the Customize kernel settings and saved. When I looked into that kernel settings menu I could not find any evidence that the scipt detected my autoconfig file becouse when I looked under the subfolder "Processor type and features-->" there should be the UARTLITE and GPIO option but none of these are there.

I would really appriciate if someone could help me with what could be my problem.

Here below I cut out from kermit what happend when I try to boot the system with the kernel I made using the Spartan 3E500 guide on petalogix site.

Thanks,

Daniel
