Enabling CONFIG_BOOT_RAW, as Atsushi already suggested, would have
added a jump to kernel_entry in this place.
Yes, I tried that, but it made no difference at the time and Atsushi
also said that it was broken in git as of 01/05/2008 (I have 2.6.23.9).
The kernel config operations (oldconfig, menuconfig, et al) obliterate
CONFIG_BOOT_RAW from the .config.
I double checked today and found that even the vmlinux make target
removes that option from .config.
Is there another way to set that option?
I saw the option used only in arch/mips/kernel/head.S, so I commented
out the __INIT. Now, I see kernel_entry at the start of the kernel and
the kernel does not cause an exception, however, it reboots instead
saying "Rebooting..."
Thanks
