Re: MPC8xx: wrong zimage_start

Hello,

I am seeing the same thing here. The zImage start is calculated in
arch/ppc/mbxboot/misc.c
in function decompress kernel. I have not  found out the solution to the
problem but a quick hack is
to hardcode the offset to the zImage by inserting the line

zimage_start = 0xfe120000; //The position of my zImage in flash rom

instead of the calculations of zimage_start (around line 286)

This is of course not a solution, but allowed me to carry on with the
actual task of porting _Linux_ to my
custom board.

Hope this helps,

K.D.
