Thanks, James and Wolfgang. I forgot to use the mkimage to convert it.

All the best,

In message [ref] you wrote:
   I downloaded your mini ramdisk. The file name is
mini-2048kB-ramdisk.image.gz. If I check the image that I wrote into the
flash, I will get an wrong magic number error. Do you konw what's wrong
with
this? Thanks.
How do you "check" it? If this is by any chance  under  U-Boot,  then
you  should  read  the docs how to convert a plain ramdisk image like
the one you are using into a U-Boot  image  (hint:  use  the  mkimage
tool).

Best regards,
