Re: [microblaze-uclinux] problems with download image.bin for kernel 2.6

Hi,

1. Kernel 2.6 is good choice.
i am sure that is the kernel setting configuration, because in 2.4 and 2.6 menus of "make menuconfig" are different. And some options change since 2.4 

2. Yes, .config files from 2.4 and 2.6 are different


    but appers next message in terminal window:
found romfs @ 0x4416108c (0x000ee000) 
    #### klimit 44175000 #####
    Moving 0x000ee000 bytes from 0x4416108c to 0x44174d54
    New klimit: 0x44263000
and then nothing else happens. What is it happen??, i am using 
    Spartan 3E rev. D, my test Memory works fine, and i change my mode
    jumpers to  M.S. mode and to FPGA mode.
3. nothing happens? I think that a lot of things happen but you don't have output on console. Be sure that you have correct setting for your serial driver. I hope you use uartlite.

4. test Memory only tells you that the memory seem works properly - this test is very simple and covers only small amount of faults.
5. Do you use U-BOOT? U-BOOT helps you testing your design more carefully and helps you with booting kernel. 
If you use U-BOOT I recommend you check the log_buf of kernel

# cat System.map | grep __log_buf  (output is memory address)
output is 441bf650

in U-BOOT you can see output like this.

If you see linux kernel log - you win. Your serial driver is not configured properly.
