Hello. U-boot-ers.
I got a problem about the linux kernel boot.
it always hangs up at my boards.
According to Mr. Xiao's suggestions,
I already compared  the  two ppcboot.h file included in u-boot and linux 
kernel,
the bd_t structure is the same.
And I think the clocks is also OK.
but on the walnut board and another our own customized board,
the linux kernel still hangs after the kernel decompression, at the same 
step.
Please have a look at the following messages.
Do you know some possible reasons of that?

from it, I found that
bootflags   = 0x0000A000
Should it be 0x00000001 ?
Is this a problem?

btw, the linux kernel and the u-boot all works fine seperately. I can 
use the u-boot to boot the board,
and run linux kernel(zImage.treeboot format) on the  Walnut board's  
default ROM monitor,
but I can not run linux over ppcboot.
 
thanks.
