Hi, With 3.13-rc1 the boot hangs early when initrd/cramfs is used. I bisected this to commit f9a7febd82f413b9c8bafd40145bc398b7eb619f (MIPS: Fix start of free memory when using initrd). I'm loading cramfs initrd on my WRT54GL router (16 MB memory) to 0x80400000. The kernel command line is: console=ttyS0,115200 rd_start=0x80400000 rd_size=5181440 root=/dev/ram init=/init With 3.13-rc1 it hangs with below output. With the above commit reverted, the board boots fine.
