Dear Pieter, In message [ref] you wrote:
Im using a ppc85xx processor with Denx ELDK (4.1) The board has 512MB DDR2 and the board config reserves 64M for pram. during bootup the mem=$mem argument is passed to the linux kernel command line and linux boots successfully.
So what are the exact boot messages of your kernel?
I am unable to mount the PRAMFS - all documentation leads me to use mount -t pramfs -o physaddr=0x1c000000,init=0x4000000 none /mnt
-------------------------------------------------------------^^^^
witch fails with the message: mounting none on /mtd failed: no such devise
-------------------^^^^ /mnt != /mtd There is something worng, probably your description. It would be better if you showed the precise commands and outpout from your target system.
