    I cannot grep bd_info in any file in asm directory which link to asm-arm
directory
    I use the linux-2.4.19.tar.gz and patch the
patch-2.4.19-rmk6.gz,diff-2.4.19-rmk6-pxa1.gz,
    I can build a zImage and then convert it to uImage that can boot by
armboot-1.1.0.
    what should I check?

    I think it is right,
    But the CFG_LOAD_ADDR is 0xa8000000,should I change my uImage's load
address?

    thanks for your encourage, I will hold on until I am really crazy. ^-^
