I don't think it's that as I was using the cvs snapshot of 28-Oct-2003. I was expecting elfboot to print something to say where it was looking for the payload, at least, but it didn't... I think that linuxbios can't find the payload, and was wondering how it knew where to find it. I shall no doubt work it out eventually, but was hoping for a quick pointer. -- Peter Fox <peter.fox@aeroflex.com> Aeroflex Test Solutions Principal Design Engineer Stevenage Any opinions expressed above are http://www.aeroflex.com/ not necessarily those of Aeroflex.

I'm trying to get the STPC Elite development board to use linuxbios with Filo, but after elfboot announces itself the board reboots:
Maybe this item in filo/FAQ applies? Q. LinuxBIOS (v1 tree) crashes or fails to verify checksum when booting FILO. A. Make sure you are using the latest source of LinuxBIOS. It had a bug that interferes with checksum calculation, until recently. -- Takeshi
