Image is also with an initramfs + appended DTB. My boot command is:

tftp 1000000 192.168.0.14:uImage.armada-xp-openblocks-ax3-4; bootm

So I'm loading to a different address than you.

Hi Thomas

Uboot tells me:

DRAM:   3 GB
       CS 0: base 0x00000000 size  1 GB
       CS 2: base 0x40000000 size  1 GB
       CS 3: base 0x80000000 size  1 GB
       Addresses 14M - 0M are saved for the U-Boot usage.

1000000 would be towards the beginning of this area reserved for uboot.

Could you try moving to somewhere outside of the first 14Mbytes and
see if that helps.

Jumping back on this old topic of the OpenBlocks AX3 not being stable
with 3 GB of RAM for Gr?gory and me, but being stable for you. Could
you check which revision of the Armada XP you have? Is it A0 or B0?

I.e, check the message:

 SoC:   MV78460 B0

in U-Boot. Gr?gory and I are using OpenBlocks AX3 based on the A0
version of the silicon (so the message I copy/pasted above is *not*
from our OpenBlocks, but a different Armada XP board). However,
PlatHome has been shipping since some time B0 revisions. Maybe it could
explain the difference we're seeing?

Thanks,

Thomas
