I'm sorry,
It is a modified MPC8360 platform.

I'm quite sure about kernel, the only interface I am going to use is
the serial interface.

When the kernel does'nt booting up there is nothing in the log to see.
(Disabled autostart)

Do you know where I can find the file where maps the U-boot code to RAM?
Or how is it made?
U-boot.map shows only where the functions is stored at flash but I
need to know where they are executing in RAM...
