Hi Dan,
Thanks for your suggestion. But still I'm using the old source code with the patch to pb1550 while I'm trying your suggestion.
The kernel code which I was using to generate the image for Au1500 is working well.
After applying the patch for pb1550 the image develops the problem.
Now, when I mrproper and build again, I get the following link failure(which I didn't get while build for Au1500)

I doubt this could be the reason why the image not runs on this processor.
Please tell me if it could lead to TLB exception.
I'm also building with the linux-mips.org source code.
Thanks and Regards,
Xavier.
