Re: kernel ported from ELDK 3.0 hangs (loops in idled()) on my custom MPC870 Board

In message [ref] you wrote:

My debug lines at the beginning of init never get printed on the
console or in the log_buf.

With "beginning of init" you mean init() in "init/main.c", right?
So gets rest_init() called?
Did you add a few printk's to start_kernel()?
How far does it get?

Any suggestions for debugging?

Attach a BDI2000 and start GDB...

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
