Re: System crash in kernel_thread

Dear Flavio,

in message [ref] you wrote:

I'm trying to port Linux to a proprietary board. I got u-boot working
good, and now that I start the kernel I find that the system _halts_
when it tries to run init using the kernel_thread routine in
init/main.c/rest_init(). Can someone suggest why this could be
happening?

One pretty common reason is that your SDRAM  initialization  sequence
may be buggy and/or incomplete, and you experience memory errors. Re-
member that more is required than just adapting the UPM tables.


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

In the beginning there was nothing.
And the Lord said "Let There Be Light!"
And still there was nothing, but at least now you could see it.
