No output while booting ML403 board

Started by Unknown June 6, 2007
Anyone,

When I try to boot linux on a Xlinx ML403 board I get the following
out put:

loaded at:       00400000 004FA1A0
board data at:   00000000 0000007C
relocated to:    0040405C 004040D8
zimage at:       00404FE5 004F7A9B
avail ram:       004FB000 7C9E2378

Linux/PPC load: console=ttyS0,9600 ip=on  root=/dev/xsysace2 rw
Uncompressing Linux...done.
Now booting the kernel

Does the 'board data at' arguments look ok.  Any help would be
appriated!!!

Avail ram is definitely wrong. Try to add
mem=0x4000000
to the kernel boot command line and see if that gets you any further.

Thanks for responing!!! I have set memory to 0x04000000. The 'avail ram' is calculated using the end of used memory '004FB000' plus the size of the 'board data'. The 'board data' size is very large, something like 7C??????. Thanks again!!!
