Bug Description
Hi,
When loading the current Ubuntu jaunty iop32x kernel into a Thecus N2100 with the d-i initramfs, the boot hangs after "Uncompressing Linux..
I'm loading the kernel and the initrd as follows:
ip_address -l 192.168.0.106 -h 192.168.0.103
load -r -v -b 0x00f00000 -m http /initrd
load -r -v -b 0x00200000 -m http /vmlinux
exec -c "console=
I tried byteswapping the Ubuntu kernel with "devio", but this didn't work, I don't see "Uncompressing Linux" anymore if I do this.
The Debian kernel starts as follows:
RedBoot> exec -c "console=
Build ATAG
ATAG_MEM: Overwrite ram_end with real_region_
ATAG_MEM=
Using base address 0x00200000 and length 0x0015a9dc
Uncompressing Linux..

and then hangs

@Loic -- which version of the ARM kerenel was this? Package name would be helpful. I know that there was some byte ordering stuff thrown into the -8 kernel, have you tested that release?
