We got it nailed down to arch/mips/kernel /setup.c. But we have not
isolated which change is actually causing it.
Do you use any initrd ? If so how do you pass its address to the
kernel ?
No.
What is your kernel load address ?
Not sure
can you send your .config file you're using ?
I'll send it to you later, since I'm not at the office right now.
We do know that reverting back to the 2.6.19.x arch/mips/kernel
/setup.c
will fix the issue. We will continue to dwindle it down until we
come up
with the offender.
What did the console say ? If nothing early console may help if
available.
All I get is this
inflate: decompressing
elf64: 00080000 - 0037701f (ffffffff.80326000) (ffffffff.80000000)
elf64: ffffffff.80080000 (80080000) 2957446t + 151450t
net: interface down
thanks
Frank any ideas on a solution?
