Hi Arun,

I've got a question about your situation:  If you have no terminal attached
to your system, how do you know what Linux is doing?  Or to put it
conversely, how do you know that it's failing?  Are you sure the problem is
really related to removing the cable or do you change something else to run
without a terminal?

I have seen my code hang in the very same place - but it did it whether a
cable was attached or not, because the UART was not set up correctly.

Hi Mark,

When I use the BDI2000 to find out what the board is doing, I can
see the place where the PPCBoot and Linux will hang.  As for debugging
the problem, I mentioned my conclusion in reply to another post.

Thanks for your followup!

Best regards,
-Arun.
