Yes, 2.6.18-rc3 + my zlib fix (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/428436) or -rc4 once it hits kernel.org works fine on my v2p-based board.Well, unfortunately I am still getting the inflate error as soon as the image grows >2MB (about). Have you tried with images of this size? If the image is smaller, everything works fine...
My first reaction when I saw this thread was that you didn't allocate something in memory and overlapped something. However, looking at your original post again, I think your kernel is growing larger than 4MB, which is the link address of the zImage. This is based on the kernel is decompressed to address 0 in ppc/boot/simple/misc-embedded.c, and a 50% compression factor and 2MB compressed image. You can look at the file size of vmlinux to see if this is close. milton
