I have seen exactly the same error messages on  FADS  boareds  before
(the  one and only time I tried to get Linux running on such a system
ever). In my case the hardware was broken.

SInce you are using an ENG or PILOT version of the hardware,  too,  I
speculate  that you have broken hardware, too. Many of the early FADS
boards would fail with Linux.


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
