Hi All,
I just finished porting linux kernel 2.6.15 to a MIPS based board. The
board now boots up beautifully ... and here is the console log:
========================================

Algorithmics/MIPS FPU Emulator v1.5
===========================================
Next, I expected to see a command prompt which never comes. At this
point if I debug, I find the processor executing the idle process.
I am successfully hable to telnet to the board and fire whatever
commands I want though. How do I bring the prompt to the serial
console?
My root FS seems OK since the same root FS is working for the same
board for an ancient kernel (2.4.20)
Any ideas, anyone?
Thanks,
Rajat
