[U-Boot-Users] Preliminary patch for Cogent CBS336 (MC9328MXL-based)

[llandre]

Hi Steven,

thanks a lot for your support. I tried to run the patched 2.6.7 kernel but 
it seems it hangs after decompression (don't see further messages):

Bytes transferred = 753884 (b80dc hex)
## Booting image at 08800000 ...

Uncompressing Linux..................................................... 
done, booting the kernel.



I'll perform further investigations. In case it actually won't work, I'll 
patch U-Boot with Sascha's latest patch and I'll try again.
