hi there
           i am a novice in this embedded field so know nothing and
working on porting hardhat linux(linux kernel version 2.2.14)  to our
custome hardware. i donot use any bootloader instead we have self made
utility which download uncompressed kernel to  our board and transfer
control to it.while givig board info in arch/ppc/kernel/m8xx_setup.c
 binfo->bi_memstart=0;
binfo->bi_memsize=8*1024*1024;
binfo->bi_intfreq=50;
#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD
//defined in  my case
        initrd_start = 10*1024*1024 + KERNELBASE;
        initrd_end = 16*1024*1024 + KERNELBASE;
#endif
i choose to import file system from my host by nfs which also works fine
as soon as the kernel calls any init(sbin,bin) it starts executing
various loops and finally goes hangs and  give me a lot of worries it is
happening since last 15 days with me that i cannot  start  my init
i also start busybox but the same results can anybody guide  me what
should be the problem i think it might be of dynamic link libraries
i mount via nfs /opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/8xx/target directory to my host
should i mount any other directory  like powerpc-linux with it so that
the shared libraries can be loaded
please tell me something about it
i am in extreme  condition of frustation
hoping any reply
bye
