Hi all,

I've some problems trying to boot a zImage with following command after
load the zImage and the fdt file on memory:

U-Boot > fdt addr ${dtbaddr}; fdt resize; bootz ${loadaddr} - ${dtbaddr}


But the sistem stops at Starting kernel ...

The same commands using the uImage instead of zImage works without
problems. Is expected to work ? Any clue before diving into the problem ?

Thanks in advance,
