Did you try passing 'console=ttyCPM0' to the bootargs? I have tried ttyCPM0 no use.
Have you tried specifying the baud rate?
Do I need to modify something on boot loader or is there any boot loader can support CPM ? Scott, Is cpm_console_init() must be initialized to fix this issue?
Please start with the latest kernel. Upgrade U-Boot as well if you have a way to recover if the new image doesn't work (e.g. a BDI). You don't need the bootwrapper for the main serial driver to work. You may need some board-specific pin/port init, though at least the serial port that U-Boot uses should already be set up, assuming it worked in U-Boot of course. :-) If it still doesn't work after switching to a current kernel, try dumping CPM registers, instrumenting the driver, etc. to see what's going on. -Scott
