Hi,
I am still having trouble booting Linux on the ARM
Integrator/CP with an ARM920T macrocell. I have tried
Peter Pearse's Patches which enable U-Boot to support
the ARM920T macrocell but i can get message as before:

I have checked the above note but this is already the default with
Linux-2.6.9 (i.e. i dont have to modify anything here for ARM).
I am trying to boot the kernel(+ramdisk) from RAM so when
building the kernel i use the following setting:
CONFIG_CMDLINE="console=ttyUA0 mem=128M root=/dev/ram0 video=vc:1-2clcdfb
ramdisk_size=17408 initrd=0x24500000,6980391
And in U-Boot i set:
setenv bootargs console=ttyUA0 mem=128M root=/dev/ram0 video=vc:1-2clcdfb
Is this correct? Even if i just try to boot the kernel ignoring the
RAMDisk i still get "Starting kernel ..." then freeze nothing happens.
Any info appreciated,
Regards,
Alan.
