I need some help!!!
I am currently involved in porting the linux SH kernel to an new board. Upto now, i have been succesfull in writing a monitor program which loads my linux kernel (vmlinux.bin format) to RAM and starts executing it. So for i have been able to step into the start_kernel() function, but i have noticed that printk fails. This happens at the very first instance of the printk in the kernel at
printk(linux_banner); , in init/main.c
Any ideas on as to WHY printk is failing? did anyone out here have similar experiences with printk before ?
anticipating a reply!! Thanks in advance.
regards, Vishal
p.s: i am using the 2.4.10-pre6 shlinux.
