Hello All,
We are porting Linux 2.5.44 for our custom board which has
603e processor..
We are using the arch/ppc/boot/simple bootloader with minor
modifications. At the end of boot-code relocation to 8 Mb, the code jumps
to the relocated code and thereafter
does the decompression (decompress_kernel)of the vmlinux image to physical
address 0 and jumps to the 0th location (3 nops followed by code). It is
from here that early_init is called.Just wondering, what modifications did you have to make to arch/ppc/boot/simple?
Now the problem is ... the kernel has been linked at 3GB and a call in kernel/head.S which says ---
How did you change things to have it link at 3GB? -- Tom Rini (TR1265) http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/ ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
