AMD SimNOW build question

[Marc Karasek]

All,

I am running into a problem with LAB on SimNOW.  It is booting into 
Linux but is getting a "linuxrc[1] trap divide error".

In troubleshooting so far I have been trying to understand the build 
process using buildrom for LAB.  I see where it creates the initramfs 
(as a cpio) during the build.  Is this supposed to be passed to the 
kernel as a cpio archive using the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE define?

In looking at the output from the console, it does not appear that the 
ramdisk is being setup by the kernel, so when it tries to init() this 
fails.

Any help would be appreciated....

I thought we decided that this was a tools problem.  If I build the LAB
payload on my Fedora 5 machine, it boots on SimNOW.  If I use my newer
install, it gives this trap divide error.  Maybe that will help you track it
down.  In January I sent you a working build of the LAB payload and a
complete Coreboot image.
