Hi Does your kernel cmdline includes the "console=ttyS0" ? It's mandatory here while with DENX's kernel it may not be. The initscript are not even launched at that point ... Sylvain Linas Petras wrote:
Hi All I'm running Sylvain Munaut's version of 2.6.10-rc2 with DENX's 3.1 ELDK as the cross compile tools with nfs mounted root filesystem and I seem to have a probelm when I'm connected to the "icecube" development boards serial port. I get the u-boot 1.1.3 bootrom messages from the serial port on the "icecube" and can boot the kernel using the serial port but I don't get any messages after the early boot message "arch: exit". It appeared to me that the board was booting so I tried to telnet via the network to the board and this worked fine. So the kernel is running, I just don't get the "normal" bootup messages from the kernel. If I use the standard DENX 2.4.25 kernel I get all the message going to the serial port OK. Any ideas of whats going on ????? Is their a problem with the console support in Sylvain's port or something in the "standard" init scripts that come with DENX's ELDK 3.1 when used with a 2.6.xx kernel or have I missed something obvious?
