[U-Boot-Users] Using U-BOOT in CSB272 board

I'm sorry if I posted where is not the exact place, but it seems 
linuxppc_embedded maillist doesn't
work.
my Linux kernel 2.4.18 panic at init EPSON1356 Display Controller
I'm using Cogent CSB272(based on IBM 405GP) board, and the OS is 
montavisa 3.0, kernel 2.4.18,
bootloader is U-BOOT 1.1.1.
When the board power on, In U-BOOT shell, the first time I download 
kernel to SDRAM(64MB),
then bootm, kernel panic at init EPSON1356 Display Controller, so I 
reset U-BOOT, I download kernel again
and at the same address(0x200000),this time, boot linux ok. Why???
When I disabled framebuffer support in kernel, then every time booting 
linux is ok.
I used another bootloader uMon and enabled framebuffer support in 
kernel,every time booting linux is ok.
I have changed bd_t struct in kernel, then it is the same as in U-BOOT, 
undefined CFG_CLK_Mhz,
I compiled U-BOOT with csb272_config.
Should I pay attention to SDRAM init sequence in U-BOOT as Wolfgang has 
said many times?
I didn't change anything about sdram_init in init.S
Isn't it enough to do the  sdram_init in init.S?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

the following is my boot information:(the first time and the second time)

Initialization
SDRAMs must be powered up and initialized in a
predefined manner. Operational procedures other than
those specified may result in undefined operation. Once
power is applied to VDD and VDDQ (simultaneously) and
the clock is stable (stable clock is defined as a signal
cycling within timing constraints specified for the clock
pin), the SDRAM requires a 100μs delay prior to issuing
any command other than a COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP.
Starting at some point during this 100μs period and continuing
at least through the end of this period, COMMAND
INHIBIT or NOP commands should be applied.
Once the 100μs delay has been satisfied with at least
one COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP command having been
applied, a PRECHARGE command should be applied. All
banks must then be precharged, thereby placing the
device in the all banks idle state.
Once in the idle state, two AUTO REFRESH cycles
must be performed. After the AUTO REFRESH cycles are
complete, the SDRAM is ready for mode register programming.
Because the mode register will power up in an
unknown state, it should be loaded prior to applying any
operational command.
