Hi  All,

I am trying to port linux on Kontron VCE405 PowerPc board which has 
following configuration 
IBM 400 MHz  gpr processor.
64 mb ram
8 mb flash
8k Serial EPROM
2 UART serial onboard
1 Ethernet 10/100 mbps
4 ?zilog serial ports
As suggested in Uboot mailing list I am able to create new u-boot for this 
target. After this I created PPC-generic kernel image and trying to boot 
this target with uImage and uramdisk , but after uncompressing the images 
the target hangs. Please advice me what I am missing .  I am enclosing 
below my Uboot setup and the corresponding images download procedure.
