Eric,

In the auto.c, if I enable : sdram_initialize(&cpu1), the linuxbios need
another 20k. What happened? Only add one line and the same function has been
called ???

Ron,

Before fallback is 64k, I make normal image into (512-64)k, and fallback
image into 64k, and then cat them into one 512k. 
Actually the normal is quite loose with a lot of zeros, and the payload is
about 20k. 
So I need to change to Config in the mainboard dir to make sure normal image
has 512-96k. or that's to say change several 65536 to 96*1024??

It that right?

Regards

Yinghai Lu

that's how I'm doing it. With a 1 Mbyte flash I don't worry much.

All functions are inline and the set of functions called is large.
At least I believe that is the issue.

And good luck catching up....

While I am away you get a chance.  My latest code has changed sdram_initialize
one more time to take a cpu count parameter.

And perversely this should help because if a function is called in a loop
it will only be inlined once instead of multiple times.
