Cannot boot an kernel version other than 2.6.35 on P2020RDB-PCA

From: MAUSSIRE Cedric <hidden>

Hello all,

I am currently working on the Freescale P2020RDB-PCA Board, which has been delivred with the linux-2.6.35 kernel. I succeed in re-generating my own uImage in 2.6.35 thanks to ELDK, but when I want to move on to a newer or older version of linux, the system does not respond any longer just after the boot whith the nfsboot command, the logs are :

## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at 01000000 ...
   Image Name:   Linux-2.6.39
   Created:      2012-05-29   8:24:54 UTC
   Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    3514882 Bytes = 3.4 MiB
   Load Address: 00000000
   Entry Point:  00000000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
## Flattened Device Tree blob at 00c00000
   Booting using the fdt blob at 0xc00000
   Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK
   Loading Device Tree to 00ffa000, end 00fffd4a ... OK

NB : nfsboot=setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=192.168.1.1:$rootpath ip=192.168.1.2:192.168.1.1:192.168.1.1:255.255.255.0:P2020RDB-PC:eth0:off console=ttyS0,115200

I have unsuccessfully tried to rebuild the device tree blob and use the default kernel configuration "mpc85xx_defconfig" that comes with the mainline code. 

My systems seems to be linux-2.6.35 dependent, I do not known how it can be possible, because I can use the kernel.org source of the 2.6.35 whith no problems but when I use the 3.0, for example, with the same configuration but it does not work.


Best regards,

Hi  Cedric MAUSSIRE,

P2020RDB-PCA Board gets supported since kernel 3.3 in mainline code.
Are you sure the board works on kernel 2.6.35?

Regards,
Yuantian

Hi Yuantian

Thanks for the tip, it's working fine on kernel 3.4.

And yes the board works on linux kernel 2.6.35. I have downloaded the mainline code on kernel.org and use the "qoriq_sdk_defconfig" provided with system builder of Freescale, but it is only working with this defconfig file and not with the default one "mpc85xx_defconfig"....

Best regards,

Cedric
