<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Okay</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> Firstly let me apologise. It seems I have no control on how my mails are sent. We are forced to use and ancient version of Lotus Notes here and I'm not sure how the rest of the folks on this list</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">receive the mails that I send when I reply "with history" which is Notes quaint way of including your replies to my questions etc.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> So</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> A) I have not posted HTML to this list. I see no reason to. Any HTML links that have may have been added seems to have been done by this blessed mailer.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> B) The quote that you claim I have used improperly is something you, Mr.Denk pulled out of my first post. It was from my original post and you cut and pasted it in your reply. My mailer seems to have mangled this somehow.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> C) Hence do not look below the area that contains my name Sadanand Warrier because that is where what I type ends and the rest of it is stuff that is added by Notes.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Now to come to the problem.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> 1) My uncompressed kernel image is approximately 1.1M. I don't know if its huge from a Linux background , but from mine it is. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> 2) Yes the RAM is fine. POST does not show any problems and I can reproduce this on 3 boards.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> 3) I've read the README and I'm still perplexed. It is obviously the kernel decompression that causes the corruption. However I am at a loss to understand that right now.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> If you feel that this thread can be terminated please do so. I'm not getting any closer to a solution other than the one I came up with and I seem to be wasting everybody else's bandwidth and time.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">This is where my current mail ends.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks</font>

How big is your uncompressed kernel image? Is there any chance you<br>
are including a HUGE image file?<br>

Are you sure that your RAm is working correctly?<br>

No. See section "Memory Management" in the README.<br>
