The settings for the UPLLCON and MPLLCON were being done for 16MHz external clock. Now we have changed that and made the settings for 12MHz clock(our board clock). Now, core is running at 271.5MHz, and the rest at 1:8:16 (FCLK:HCLK:PCLK).

Now we have managed to get the output as follows:

U-Boot 1.3.2 (Apr  9 2008 - 09:45:21)

## Booting image at 33000000 ...
   Image Name:   Linux kernel
   Image Type:   ARM Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
   Data Size:    1167125 Bytes =  1.1 MB
   Load Address: 30008000
   Entry Point:  30008000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
   Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK

Starting kernel ...

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

and then it hangs. We are writing the kernel image directly to the ram to 33000000 via JTAG.
How do I proceed from here?


Thanks alot for your previous mails. It is helping us alot in debugging the hardware and softwares.

Thank You,
Tiju
