Thanks, that makes sense. > If you just bypass the SRAM init [1], does the issue go away ? I tried bypassing the whole SRAM init, but the device does not seem to boot up at all. If I comment out the memset alone, then it boots and the issue is gone: +#if 0 memset_io(omap_sram_base + SRAM_BOOTLOADER_SZ, 0, omap_sram_size - SRAM_BOOTLOADER_SZ); +#endif A. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
